Victor recently learned about the Treaty of Fort Laramie, an 1868 treaty between the US government and the Sioux Nation. He wants to read the exact language of the treaty. Which text would best achieve this purpose?
Answer
A
a historical novel that takes place in Fort Laramie in 1868
B
a history textbook in which the treaty is mentioned
C
a copy of the primary source document of the treaty
D
an editorial about the modern legacy of the treaty
Explanation
