YELLOW HAIR by Clay Fisher

YELLOW HAIR

By

Publisher: Houghton, Mifflin- Ballantine

Custer (Yellow Hair) still standing- firm, and wanting no other terms except death for the Cheyennes, whose aging chief, Black Kettle, is prepared for peace while the younger Mad Wolf is still hostile. It is Joshua Kelso, his best scout, who falls in love with the beautiful Monaseetah, and in wooing her, is trapped by Mad Wolf who hopes through him- to trap Custer. But Josh makes his way back to the army, and after the massacre of the Indians, rescues the captive Monaseetah and takes her as his woman. Relentless and resolute.
