Book Description
In 1874, Fort Robinson was founded amid the piney ridges of northwest Nebraska to stem the attacks of the Sioux, angered by settlers encroaching on the High Plains and by gold prospectors invading their sacred Black Hills. Fort Robinson’s residents—including black troops, members of the Ninth and Tenth Cavalry Regiments—were divided by rank and sometimes by race. Schubert makes clear the vital importance of Fort Robinson during the Sioux wars, including the Ghost Dance Uprisings of 1890, and he blends social analysis with military history in his concern for the families of soldiers and civilians.

Book Description
"In recent years a new military history has emerged in American scholar- ship. This new history, in contrast with the traditional 'drum and trumpet' version of America's martial past, concentrating on operations and commanders, emphasizes the development of the military as an institution and its interrelationship with the rest of American society. Some practitioners of the new military history have been influenced by social science concepts and methodology, especially sociological. Others have relied on more traditional means of historical research, analysis, and writing. Regardless of the approach taken, an appreciation of the impact of the military on American life throughout our history is implicit in all of this recent scholarship"--Pref.
