The promise of endless fields of golden wheat, great herds of prime beef cattle, fabulous empires built from railroads & mines lured the ambitious & the brave to this uncharted country. But war cries soon echoed across the plains as mighty red nations united in a pact of blood to fight the newcomers for their sacred hunting grounds.

DAKOTA! Crack calvary troops, veterans of the long Civil War, keep order on the Northwest plains as rugged settlers push deeper into unexplored lands. There the cunning Sioux, fierce Blackfoot, & defiant Cheyenne beat the solemn drums of battle, while Toby Holt, son of famous wagon master Whip Holt, sets out alone to convince the red man to smoke the pipe of peace. But the treachery of a powerful chief & the relentless hatred of Ma Hastings, leader of a murderous outlaw gang, drives this bravest of pioneers, toward a deadly ambush. Back home a more personal war is waged - beautiful wife Clarissa frantically awaits Toby's return as scandal taints passionate Beth Martin, wife of Toby's dearest friend.
