The Diary of Lieutenant Colonel Henry Tyndall 1895-1915. Henry Tyndall was a typical product of the Victorian age - an intensely patriotic army officer who served in India, on the North-West Frontier, on the Western Front and in East Africa at the height of the British empire. For 20 years, from 1895 to 1915, he kept a detailed diary that gives a vivid insight into his daily life and concerns, his fellow officers and men, and the British army of his day. He also left a graphic account of his experiences on campaign in the First World War and in the Third Afghan War. B.A. 'Jimmy' James has edited and annotated Tyndall's diary in order to make it fully accessible to the modern reader.

The central conflict took place on the Great Plains, where the Native Americans from many different areas had been promised sanctuary. They had great difficulty in adapting their ways of life to a very different environment, and the Plains Native Americans resented the presence of the newcomers. White settlers were also moving into the territory, causing further hostilities. The Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Sioux fought white encroachment on their territory in the 1860s and 1870s. Ferocious fighting from both sides was seen at battles such as the Fetterman Massacre, the Wagon Box Fight, the Sand Creek Massacre, Beecher’s Island, and the Battle of the Rosebud. The warfare largely ended with the battle at Wounded Knee, South Dakota, on December 29, 1890, when Sioux warriors, women, and children were slaughtered by the U.S. Cavalry.
