This is a continuation of The Plainsman series that Johnston wrote. His facts and figures are historically accurate. Life for the Indians was definately changing, and the hardships they had to live under were terrible. Crazy Horse was never an actual chief, but he was a respected and revered man, by both some Indians, and some of the Cavalrymen. This really tells the story of enforced reservation life, and how the white man could never understand the way the Indians thought.
