Description

No longer the similar Black Hawk who resisted European encroachment in Illinois thirty years in advance, but a warrior chief also named Antonga, who led Utes, Navajos, and Paiutes in a series of stock raids on Mormon settlements in Utah territory from 1863 to 1867. The Mormon’s hesitated to name for troops as a result of previous trouble that they had had with the USA government, and as a substitute formed their very own militia, the Nauvoo Legion. The resulting bloodshed degenerated into a war of vengeance that ended only in 1872 with the coming of federal troops. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
