Reviews

"One of the most original, suggestive, and thoughtful contributions to the science of history in recent years."—Henry Steele Commager

"To the merits of sound scholarship and industrious research are to be added the possession of an easy and attractive style and abundant evidence of first-hand acquaintance with the conditions of Western Life. It is not too much to say that anyone who wishes to understand either the history or the present problems and state of mind of the Great Plains region will find this book indispensable."—The New York Times

"One of the absolute definitive works of American history about this part of the continent. . . . A fascinating book."—S. C. Gwynne, True West
