After graduating as the first black from West Point in 1877, Henry
O. Flipper was dismissed from the U. S. Army in 1882 following a
financial scandal. He went on to enjoy a career as a land surveyor,
scholar of mining and land laws, congressional alde, and writer and
translator. Black Frontiersman is Flipper's account of his service
with the Tenth U. S. Cavalry in Texas and Oklahoma and the years
that followed. Flipper's memoir was first published in 1963 as
Negro Frontiersman, edited by Theodore Harris. For this revised
edition, Harris has added a new introduction, expanded the
endnotes, and added previously unpublished material. Henry O.
Flipper was posthumously vindicated, his discharge changed to
honorable, and his body reburied with military honors.
