"This meticulously documented book . . . , based on Army records
and firsthand reports, should stand as definitive. [It] is, by far,
the best account yet of Fort Phil Kearny and the stirring events
that took place. . . . A must for devotees of Western
Americana."—Robert F. Hannon, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
"For the first time we have the detailed story of all the little
fights that preceded the major disaster. . . . It is one of the
best studies that has been made of any sector of the Indian
wars."—Don Russell, Chicago Sunday Tribune
