Sobre este artículo
Bloomington and Indianapolis: Indiana University Press, [1994]., 1994. First edition. First edition. 8vo. Blue cloth, titles stamped in gilt on the spine, xvi, 256 pp., frontispiece [portrait], editor's foreword, illustrated, portraits, index. General Gibbon's experiences on the western frontier as he first encountered it in 1860, and as he campaigned and scouted through the West during the 1870s. Robert M. Utley says "John Gibbon was a seasoned frontier soldier, not given to the public theatrics of some of his contemporaries. His writings represent a vivid glimpse of the West while it was still untamed --- an interesting and informative contribution to the literature of westward expansion." A section on Custer and the Battle of Little Big Horn. As new, unread copy in dust jacket.
