REVIEWS:

“Provides an excellent synthesis of Indian-white relations in the trans-Mississippi West during the last half-century of the frontier period. ”

Journal of American History

“Provides an excellent synthesis of Indian-white relations in the trans-Mississippi West during the last half-century of the frontier period. ”

Journal of American History

“Combines good writing, solid research, and penetrating interpretations. The result is a fresh and welcome study that departs from the soldier-chases-Indian approach that is all too typical of other books on the topic. ”

Minnesota History

“Robert M. Utley] has carefully eschewed sensationalism and glib oversimplification in favor of critical appraisal, and his firm command of some of the best published research of others provides a solid foundation for his basic argument that Indian hostility in the half century following the Mexican War was directed less at the white man per se than at the hated reservation system itself. ”
