Reviews

"An excellent study of this neglected frontier and the tragedy that climaxed two decades of ever-increasing friction between the native inhabitants and the newcomers of a little-known part of the West."--The Western Historical Quarterly

"[A] thoroughly researched study by a prolific scholar. An excellent case study that confirms recent scholarship, and includes an extensive, current bibliography of the Shoshoni."--CHOICE

"A meticulously documented history of Indian-white relations in a previously ignored area. A welcome expansion of detail on the comprehensive work of the late John Unruh in The Plains Across and of immense value to those of us concerned with constructing a full ethnohistory of the Great Basin."--American Indian Culture and Research Journal

"A significant contribution to our study of the West."--Deseret News

"Careful research and excellent scholarship. A major historiographical revision of Utah-Idaho history."--American Studies

"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

"The research is comprehensive and deep and the scholarship excellent."--Robert M. Utley
