Buffalo Soldiers And Officers Of The Ninth Cavalry, 1867–1898: Black And White Together

Charles L. Kenner's detailed biographies of officers and enlisted men describe the passions, aspirations, and conflicts that both bound blacks and whites together and pulled them apart. Special attention is given to the ordeals of the three black officers assigned to the Ninth Cavalry, Lieutenants John Alexander and Charles Young and Chaplain Henry Plummer, whose presence directly challenged the doctrine of white supremacy.
