"Mr. Brininstool has made a genuine contribution to the history of the Nebraska frontier in the foregoing account of the surrender and death of the Sioux Chief Crazy Horse, at Fort Robinson in 1877. The story of the killings was often told around the campfires of those days by both Indians and white frontiersmen.It is probably true that Crazy Horse was one of the most remarkable men of his remarkable race, and that, as a warrior, it is questionable whether it ever produced a greater."
