"A very important book.... Readers will understand better who  the Shoshoni were, who they are, and why the conditions of 1840–1865 dealt with  them so tragically."—Montana Magazine"An excellent chronicle of antagonism between the far-flung, loosely affiliated Shoshonis and a cavalcade of western travelers, Mormon settlers, and jumpy soldiers."—American Historical Review"An excellent study of this neglected frontier and the tragecy that climaxed two decades of ever-increasing friction between the native inhabitants and the newcomers of a little-know part of the West."—The Western Historical Quarterly"The research is comprehensive and deep and the scholarship excellent."—Robert M.
