Singleterry and his partner, Peter Dunreath, are sent to scout ahead of their battalion when they’re taken captive by two fighters from the Cheyenne, a tribe not known for taking prisoners.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e One fighter is an old medicine woman, suspicious and eager to kill, while the other, a beautiful mixed-race girl named Marisa, wants to wait. The women tell the scouts about their tribe’s decimation during its forced relocation, and of multiple promises that have been broken—stories that force Singleterry to face difficult questions of love and desertion.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Written by an acclaimed chronicler of the drama of the American West and the conflicts between white men and Indians, this is a moving novel of torn loyalties set during one of the most tumultuous eras in Native American history.\u003ci\u003e Cavalry Scout\u003c\/i\u003e gives full-blooded reality to its time, and to both the settlers and natives at the heart of its story.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003ci\u003eThis ebook features an illustrated biography of Dee Brown including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Open Road Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47179960844528,"sku":"9781453274255","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781453274255_p0.jpg?v=1769907295","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781453274255","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
