Description
Denver: The Old West Publishing Company, 1960 Book. Very fine. Hardcover. First edition. [8], 304pp. Illustrated with 42 old photographs, portraits and drawings, map endpapers. Extensive chapter notes, index. Blue cloth, gilt. A very fine copy with spine-faded dust jacket. Highly regarded account of a celebrated officer and his wife, who followed him. Andrew Burt briefly commanded Ft. Bridger & was the last Commandant of Ft. C. F. Smith. This scholarly work presents the first complete history of Fort C. F. Smith, remote outpost on the Bozeman Trail, which has long been shrouded in obscurity. For the first time, events following the Fetterman massacre and leading to the bloody Hayfield Fight are revealed. It is extensively based on first-hand records kept by Mrs. Burt. Her memoirs, dusty army records and other rare sources have been searched to illuminate one of the most critical episodes in the annals of Indian warfare..
