Editorial Reviews

“[The book] contains accounts of the problems of establishing a home on the frontier posts, the relationship between Custer and his father and brother, the danger encountered in traveling on the Great Plains, and the anxiety of an Indian campaign.... Its illustrations and examples offer insight into the life and hardships faced by military families in the West.”—Great Plains Journal
