Edge wear. 1999 Trade Paperback. xvi, 479 pp. "Paul Huttonâs study of Phil Sheridan in the West is authoritative, readable, and an important contribution to the literature of westward expansion. Although headquartered in Chicago, Sheridan played a crucial role in the opening of the West. His command stretched from the Missouri to the Rockies and from Mexico to Canada, and all the Indian Wars of the Great Plains fell under his direction. Hutton ably narrates and interprets Sheridanâs western career from the perspective of the top command rather than the battlefield leader. His book is good history and good reading."âRobert M.
