This book is suitable for children aged 10 and up. Chief Joseph was a peace chief, a great leader who truly believed his nation, the Nez Perce, could live in harmony with white people. Tragically, it was not to be. This fascinating biography separates fact from myth and tells the compelling story of a man who tried to fight injustice with words, not weapons.
