A seven-year struggle for Northwest supremacy. THe seven years from 1853 to 1859 are probably more important to the Pacific Northwest than any period of its recorded history. It was int he 1850s that officials began carving the Oregon Territory into the states. It was the period when most Indian tribes signed treaties that were supposed to protect their futures. It was also when the natives of the region learned that, no matter what the treaties promised, they would have little control over their destiny. So they fought a hopeless battle to preserve their way of life. Both settlers and natives believed they were God's chosen people. With hindsight, we can see see with clarity the injustices done. But neither side can claim purity of action. Atrocities were committed by both. For almost every major tribe of the Northwest the 1850s marked the end of their way of life. This is the story of how cultures clashed and how this region's history shapes its course today.
