The Civil War drained the youngest state in the Union of soldiers and resources. War expenses delayed treaty payments, and the Sioux Uprising of 1862. The largest Indian war in U.S. history, it was bracketed by the bloody battles of Shiloh and Antietam. Although the government declared the uprising over in the fall, Pomme de Terre tells the story of settlers living in the western part of the state where raids continued through the following year." -Back Cover. 20140620.
