Reviews
"It is fine social as well as military history, and offers valuable insights into fort and town-the army's equivalent of town and gown. The triumphs and trials of black soldiers in the frontier period also receive important illumination."-Robert M. Utley, author of Frontier Regulars: The United States Army and the Indian, 1866-1891
"To my knowledge, Schubert's thoughtful research in community records goes beyond the work of any other post historian. Indeed, this is an outstanding post history."-Edward M. Coffman, author of The Old Army and The War to End All Wars
