Hedren, PaulGREAT SIOUX WAR ORDERS OF BATTLE: How the United States Army Waged War on the Nothern Plains, 1876-1877 The Great Sioux War played out on 27 different battlefields scattered across five states. Extensive documentation demonstrates that the American army adapted quickly to the challenges of fighting this unconventional war and was more effectively led and better equipped than is customarily believed. While it lost at Powder River and at the Little Big Horn, it did not lose the Great Sioux War. Considers concepts of doctrine, training, culture, and materiel to aid understanding of the army's structure and disposition. Examines 28 Great Sioux War deployments in chronological order, including documentation of command structures, formations, and companies employed. Addresses how an otherwise sound American army was defeated in two battles and nearly lost a third. Also features seven helpful appendices, a glossary, and an oversized map showing forts, encampments, and battle sites.1 vol, 240 pgs 2012 US, UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA PRESS NEW-pb, available late August 2024 ......$22.00 rct ..see our AMERICAN WEST
