Guy Preston, a beardless second lieutenant fresh from West Point, joins the troops building Fort Phil Kearny on the northern plains. Out hunting prairie chickens, he meets the Indian Winged Arrow and the daring scout Cyrus, and is soon caught up in captivity among the Sioux and the events leading to the massacre of 1866.
Frontier adventure from a prolific nineteenth-century boys’ writer; its portrayal of the Sioux reflects the attitudes of its time. Download the free EPUB.
