The 39th Indian is the story of an orphaned colored boy named Colton Sage. He is the son of a runaway slave and an Indian woman. He is raised and educated on the reservation by a white missionary lady. She never stops trying to do the right thing for a proud people who are forever put down and living under the oppression of brutal military control. Colton is born free into the white man’s world of endless prejudice. He learns valuable life lessons from possibly the most ill-treated people in the country; the reservation Indians. It is a harsh era of slavery and broken treaties. Colton grows up to be an important part of the Indian uprising of 1862. He becomes one of the fiercest and feared Indian outlaws in the land: the infamous Black Bat from Hell. He was captured and destined to be hanged with thirty-eight others in the largest mass-execution in US history. He was the one that got away. This book is dedicated to you, the Reader.Thank you.
