Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. University of Nebraska Press, NE. Francis Roe married Lieutenant Fayette Roe after he graduated from West Point in 1871. They remained on the frontier in various forts until 1888 when they were sent to Omaha, Nebraska. Mrs. Roe states: "events mentioned in the letters are not imaginary, perhaps the letters themselves tell that! They are truthful accounts of experiences that came into my own life with the Army in the far West, whether they be about Indians, desperadoes, or hunting, not one little thing has been stolen. They are of a life that has passed, as has passed the buffalo and the antelope, yes, and the log and adobe quarters for the Army." A narrative about army life on the frontier.
