Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"The White Cheyenne" is the story of Julien Tremeau, son of mountain man and rancher Charles Tremeau and his Indian wife Red Earth Woman. Charles Tremeau thought his son should know the white world as well as the Indian, and so sent Julien East to school, only for Julien to return to the West, marry Bird Woman, and live with the Cheyenne in Chief Black Kettle's village. The morning Colonel Chivington and his volunteer army encircled the village and began the slaughter that would result in more than two hundred dead, Bird Woman was killed, their two children taken prisoner to be put on exhibit in a tent show in Denver, and Julien left for dead. But he was not dead and he vowed vengeance on all whites, including the man who had stolen his children.
The White Cheyenne -- Gun This Man Down.
"Two Western stories: In The White Cheyenne, Julien Tremeau, Black Dog, vows vengeance on all whites for the deaths of his Indian wife and children. In Gun This Man Down, Matt Hurst returns home seeking justice for his father and brothers who were killed by a posse without benefit of a trial and soon becomes a target"-- Provided by publisher.
