First published in 1926, this book by William Bleasdell Cameron is the gripping account of his experiences of captivity following the Frog Lake Massacre of the North-West Rebellion of April 2, 1885, of which he was the only male survivor. "On that dread day in April, 1885, when savagery was blood-mad, his constant and understanding kindness to the Indians bore fruit: "Those women are starting for the camp. Go with them; and do not leave them. They will not shoot among the women." And from that moment until the release of the prisoners two months later he lived amongst them in their wanderings, an intelligent and sympathetic eye-witness of all that happened. This is the story Mr. Cameron has to tell. It is of especial value for its treatment of events on the little-known western front."—The Washington Historical Quarterly
