It's 1881 and a US Army unit led by Colonel Joseph Kindred, the military's most famous Indian fighter, has been ordered to remove 1,500 Colorado Ute from their homeland to a new reservation in Utah as retribution for the massacre of an Indian agent the previous year. When, in a fit of rage, Colonel Kindred murders a beloved Ute sub-chief, an investigation follows, and Kindred, a decorated Civil War veteran, faces the possibility of a court-martial and the end of his military career. Eventually, the trial is ordered, and a young former corporal, Hiram Marlow, is called on to testify against his former superior-a task that forces him to recall events he'd rather forget and casts a shadow over his own future. A sweeping story that examines the realities of racism, duty versus honor, and the nature of revenge, Red, White & Army Blue exposes the dark side of Manifest Destiny and the American Dream.
