Chief Joseph was forced to surrender or face extinction.

Chief Joseph did not write a novel detailing American Indians' economic woes. His speeches and letters, such as his famous surrender speech, focused on the injustices and hardships faced by his people, the Nez Perce tribe, during their forced relocation from their homeland. His words are known for expressing his desire for peace and understanding between Native Americans and the U.S. government.
