Nester, William R. The Arikara War The First Plains Indian War, 1823
Missoula MT Mountain Press Publishing CO. 2001 0-87842-430-X / 9780878424306 First Edition Hard Cover New New
257 pages, maps, photos. "In 1823, at the height of the fur trade, Arikara warriors attacked an American trapping expedition on the Missouri River in present-day South Dakota. Thus began the brief Arikara War-the first military encounter between the United States western Indians and a crucial turning point in both the international relations and trade of a fledgling nation. With 230 soldiers, 750 Sioux allies, and 50 aggrieved trappers, United States Army Colonel Henry Leavenworth retaliated."
