"Indian Fights and Fighters: The Soldier and the Sioux" by Cyrus Townsend Brady is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the battles and conflicts experienced by American soldiers and Native American tribes, particularly highlighting the Sioux nation during the Indian Wars. The book aims to offer a fair representation of the events, exploring both the soldiers' experiences and the perspectives of the Native Americans involved. The opening of the book sets the stage for the tumultuous military history surrounding Fort Phil Kearney during its brief existence from 1866 to 1868. It describes the fort's constant state of siege by the Sioux, led by notable figures like Red Cloud, as American soldiers attempted to protect emigrants and maintain control of the territory. The narrative introduces the complex relationships between the U.S. Army and the Native American tribes, emphasizing the personal accounts of soldiers who faced fierce resistance while also shedding light on the motivations and strategies of the Native Americans defending their land.
