They killed some 200 people, mostly women, children and elderly men. A young Cheyenne woman named Mochi survived, but the events of the day set her on a path to avenge the deaths of her family and people. A recent book by authors Chris Enss and Howard Kazanjian, "Mochi’s War: The Tragedy of Sand Creek," tells her story.
