Excerpt from The Battle of the Big Hole: A History of General Gibbon"s Engagement With Nez Perces Indians in the Big Hole Valley, Montana, August 9th, 1877
Dear Sir: I have read with a great deal of interest and pleasure the manuscript of your book, entitled "The Battle of the Big Hole," and as a participant in the tragic affair it describes, can cheerfully commend it to all who are interested in obtaining a true history of the Nez Perce campaign. It is a graphic and truthful account of the Big Hole fight, and of the events leading up to it, and must prove a most valuable contribution to the history of our Indian wars.
I trust the book will meet -with the generous reception it deserves.
