| Abstract | The history of the Sioux uprising by Captain Nix represents an actual eyewitness account of the 1862 uprising. The availability of such accounts sheds light on sometimes divergent perspectives by the various participants. This history quite clearly demonstrates and establishes the importance of the First Battle of New Ulm, and the role played therein by the New Ulm Germans. The history also illuminates a wide variety of aspects and dimensions of the Uprising, which may open new avenues for consideration, discussion, and further research. Finally, this history by Captain Nix demonstrates the importance of German-language source materials in the history of the state of Minnesota. |
