Meacham gives the Modocside of the controversy. "This book is written in the interest of justice and humanity . It is written with the avowed purpose of doing honor to the heroic Wine-ma, who at the peril of her life sought to save the ill-fated Peace Commission to the Modoc Indians in 1873 . Its further aim is to secure a more just and humane treatment of the remnants of the original owners of the continent of America." (Preface)."--Description from Second Life Books Inc., bookseller.
