by Lenora Rain-Lee Good (Author)

On the 29th of November, 1847, within the Whitman Mission in the southeastern corner of Washington state, a clash of cultures, misunderstandings, and outright lies all came together to a disastrous end for all concerned. Written as 22 poems, "Blood on the Ground: Elegies for Waiilatpu" tells the story of those who lost their lives as well as those who instigated and carried out the uprising that fateful day.
