About the Book
The Great Sioux Trail: A Story of Mountain And Plain is a gripping historical adventure set in the American West following the Civil War. The narrative follows a young man and his companion as they journey through perilous landscapes, encountering the powerful Sioux nation led by Red Cloud. Their quest is filled with danger and adventure, as they navigate the complex relationship between settlers and Native American tribes during a time of tension and conflict. The novel explores themes of bravery, survival, and the clash of cultures, as the characters find themselves caught between the advancing settlers and the determined efforts of the indigenous tribes to protect their lands. As they venture into the wilderness, the characters’ courage is tested, and their loyalty and instincts for survival come to the forefront. With vivid depictions of the American frontier and its challenges, the story delves into the struggles of both the settlers and the Native Americans, highlighting the harsh realities of their world while enhancing the exploration of bravery, conflict, and cultural identity.
Joseph A. Altsheler was born on April 29, 1862, in Three Springs, Hart County, Kentucky, to Joseph and Louise Altsheler. He was a newspaper reporter, editor, and author of popular juvenile historical fiction. He wrote fifty novels and at least fifty-three short stories. Seven of his novels were in sequence. He worked as an editor at the Louisville Courier-Journal in 1885. In 1892, he started to work for New York World and then as the editor of the World's tri-weekly magazine. He wrote children’s stories due to a lack of suitable stories. On May 30, 1880, Altsheler married Sarah Boles and had a son named Sidney. In 1914, during World War I Altsheler and his family were in Germany and they were forced to remain there. Altsheler died at the age of 57, on June 5, 1919, in New York. His wife, Sarah Boles died after 30 years. Their bodies are buried at the Cave Hill Cemetery in Louisville, Kentucky. Although each of the thirty-two novels constitutes an independent story, Altsheler suggested reading in sequence for each series (that is, he numbered the volumes). You can read the remaining eighteen novels in any order.
