Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce
Robert Penn Warren
Paperback
(Random House, March 15, 1983)
This poem, by Pulitzer Prize winner Robert Penn Warren, relives the story of Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce, who so proudly and valiantly denied the "white man" who were not content to let them live as they had always done, and who were forcibly relegating them to a small piece of land on the other side of the country.
