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.
