(The history of Fort Robinson, Nebraska is much more than ...)
The history of Fort Robinson, Nebraska is much more than a record of battles. The post was a community whose residentsofficers with their wives and children, married enlisted men and their families, and the single men in the barracks - lived in close physical proximity but under substantially different conditions. Divided by military rank and traditions and sometimes by race, those parts of the community had their own social lives and problems as well as different relations with the nearby town of Crawford. Although focusing on those men, women, and children stationed at the fort, the author also examines their impact on the neighboring town of Crawford. Those civilians depended on military spending in both traditional and novel ways. War Department expenditures stimulated business and brought some residents power and profit while the money the soldiers spent on whisky and sex helped support municipal government through saloon and prostitution taxes. Indeed, when the garrison was called away for the Spanish-American War in 1898, the town's revenues plummetted.

The Whirlwind War: The United States Army in Operations DESERT SHIELD and DESERT STORM provides an overview of the U.S. Army's role in the coalition force arrayed against Iraq during the Persian Gulf War in 1990-1991. Frank N. Schubert and Theresa L. Kraus, as well as thirteen other contributing historians, have crafted a riveting account of how the Vietnam-era Army transformed itself into a small, superbly equipped, highly skilled, well-trained, and extremely mobile force, composed of units from both the active and reserve components. In this major test the Army clearly demonstrated that it could project its power effectively and operate as part of a multinational force with great success.

On the Trail of the Buffalo Soldier II presents more than 2,000 new and nearly 1,000 revised biographies of black servicemen, giving the researcher not only glimpses of individual lives but also documentation of the variety of African-American experiences within and outside the army. It offers two significant additions: a table containing the names of 61 soldiers who were awarded the Certificate of Merit for valor or bravery, with dates and places of the action recognized, and a revised and updated bibliography. The comprehensive index combines biographical entries in the original (1995) edition and in this Supplement. Additionally it includes cemeteries, Indian tribes, and place names. Cities and towns, counties, forts, and geographic features such as creeks are listed under the current state.

1992Quotations: "By day, I am a public historian, conducting research and managing programs in areas deemed important by my employer. When I can, I also work on subjects of my own choosing, mostly buffalo soldiers and, more recently, baseball history. Both kinds of historical work - client-oriented and personally driven - have their satisfactions."
