Henry Elijah Alvord
This is the life story of a quintessential 19th-century man, Henry Elijah Alvord, who greatly influenced the 20th century. After chasing Mosby in Virginia and fighting with the Union in the Western campaign, he married an older Confederate belle. Then he served as an Indian negotiator at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. As a leader in progressive education, he served as President of the Maryland Agricultural College and other land-grant universities. He ended his career as head of the Dairy Division of the Department of Agriculture. His chosen epitaph, "Soldier-Farmer-Teacher," is a modest tribute to his supremely energetic, productive life of service and research.

Washita Memories
"In this documentary history, Richard G. Hardorff presents a broad range of views of the Washita battle. Eyewitnesses to the destruction of the Southern Cheyenne village included soldiers, officers, tribal members, Indian and white scouts, and government officials. Many of these witnesses recorded their memories of the event. With Washita Memories, Hardorff has collected these surviving documents into a one-of-a-kind primary resource.".
