This book is not yet featured on Listopia. You can tell a man wrote this. The technical military stuff and the terrible attitude toward Native Americans rings true but there are many parts that seem to be a long walk to nowhere.

Inoften found myself wishing he would get on with the story. The women are either tenderhearted or conniving seductresses. And our "daughter of the Sioux" uses and abuses the kind people who raised her and gave her everything. Reinforcig the negative image of our original settlers. I really was not very impressed w You can tell a man wrote this. I really was not very impressed with this book. A Daughter of the Sioux by Charles King is a good story of the old west and the inevitable demise of the Indian. Although occasionally it is a little long-winded, it rings true. This was a very good read.

For the most part the story flowed well and was difficult to put down. The military life was portrayed vividly, and the book would be interesting for that alone Missing money, mysterious secret night rides, and a beautiful young woman who gives every sign of innocence, yet somehow is near the scene each time One thing I really liked was the portrayal of the offi This was a very good read.

One thing I really liked was the portrayal of the officers' wives, and how great a part they played in the story. It showed a beautiful picture of several couples well paired, gallant men and brave women. The women's opinions were respected and acted on, even though they were not enlisted in the military themselves--even to the point of being present at numerous councils and asked to give advice. The setting was so vivid that it was evident the author had personal experience both in the West and as a soldier of the day.

His account of the Indian troubles was very interesting, especially as he credited the Indian braves with often-superior strategy and generalship, and deplored that Congress often mishandled Indian policy greatly. He writes often with the respect of a soldier for a worthy foe, even when he is speaking of the battle scene. One thing readers might like to be aware of beforehand is that paragraphs often run several pages in length.

If you are used to reading Hemingway and Stephen King, such longwindedness might be difficult to understand; but to anyone who is used to the classics, this is a good and enjoyable read. This book was very disjointed. Somewhere in the book there was a story to be told. But, to me, it felt as if the author was jumping around too much. At one point, I got so confused I lost all track of the story.

The book turned out to be a tragic story of a young lieutenant serving in the army out west and a girl who sweeps down on the fort turning the heads of the young men and drawing the ire of most of the women.
