Description
Scarlet Plume is a historical novel set against the backdrop of the largest Indian uprising in American history. In 1862, the conflict in southern Minnesota reached its boiling point as Sioux warriors sought to avenge centuries of forced displacement and violence. The story follows Judith Raveling, a young woman who finds herself at the mercy of the Sioux after her world is turned upside down by the uprising. Her fate hangs in the balance as she is given to Scarlet Plume, one of the many warriors torn between loyalty to his people and his own moral code. As the war rages on, Scarlet Plume must navigate the treacherous landscape of his own judgment, all while trying to save those he can from the brutal conflict. A gripping tale of survival and redemption, Scarlet Plume is the third installment in Frederick Manfred's The Buckskin Man Tales series.
