Barclay and Sitting Bull

 In my recently released historic novel, Barclay of the Mounted, young Henry Barclay inadvertently grants the entire Sioux nation sanctuary in Canada, much to the chagrin of his superiors in the North-West Mounted Police.

This incident is of course based on the true historical event in 1877 when, after defeating the U.S. Army under General Armstrong Custer at the Battle of Little Big Horn, Sitting Bull sought refuge in Canada.

The Sioux stayed for four years in Western Canada---or what they called the Grandmother's Country, the reference meaning British Queen Victoria---until circumstances forced the Sioux back to the United States.
