Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Indian Question; Young Konkaput, the King of Utes and Shawsheen, His Maiden Queen: A Legend of Twin Lakes; The Ute-Meeker Massacre
This book is chie?y for American youth; but as men and women are matured boys and girls, it offers entertainment and instruction to persons of every age, race and sex, and if it shall afford them useful pleasure, it will of course be read, analyzed and passed along. It is, however, unambitious and only like itself. Its practical object is to impress upon our rising public some of the real deserts and difficulties of The Indian Question in the United States, and incidentally treat of our relations to other races also. It was hastily written ten years ago, in a time of great popular excitement and personal sorrow over the sufferings and death of some of my near and dear friends, by savage treachery and cruelty.
