 | | This massacre was not justified and was a tragedy for the Cheyenne. |
| | This account of the massacre investigates the historical events leading to the battle, tracing the growth of the Indian-white conflict in Colorado Territory. |
| | The author has shown the way in which the discontent stemming from the treaty of Fort Wise, the depredations committed by the Cheyenne's and Arapahoe's prior to the massacre, and the desire of some of the commanding officers for a bloody victory against the Indians laid the groundwork for the battle at Sand Creek. |
