| Summary | "Warrior Gap: A Story of the Sioux Outbreak of '68" by Charles King is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around Lieutenant Marshall Dean, who has just begun his career in the cavalry when tensions rise between the U.S. government and the Sioux Indians in the late 1860s. The story highlights themes of duty, bravery, and the complexities of frontier life during a tumultuous period in American history. The opening of the book sets the stage as Lieutenant Dean marches with his troop through the beautiful terrain of the Big Horn region. The young officer is depicted as a confident but inexperienced leader, reflecting on his fond memories of family and home as they travel to Warrior Gap. The reader is introduced to key characters, including Dean's close friend, Hal Folsom, and his sister, Jessie, as well as the looming threat of conflict with the Sioux tribe, led by the formidable chief, Red Cloud. As tensions rise and warnings of impending danger ripple through the camp, the stage is set for a gripping tale of conflict and camaraderie against a backdrop of majestic landscapes and perilous encounters.
