One of my favourites (three mangled copies worth) is free for online reading. The setting Fort Abraham Lincoln. Dakota Territories, 1875-76. The book centres on a few fictional characters and the 7th US Cavalry. Main 3 characters and townspeople are fictional, most of the army personnel are real although at least one (Bierss) is a composite from anonymous diaries.

The online book SEEMS to be complete although I just gave it a cursory glance because I KNOW if I start, I will be reading all day.

So, let's have at it, and maybe discuss? It isn't your typical novel that covers that time period.

If a synchronised swimmer drowns, do they all have to drown?

That just sucks

I'll look it up, though. I read 'Traveller', which was 'written' by Robert E Lee's horse.

It's the view of your Civil War from the point of view of the animals in the cavalry.

Yes, yes, I know it's 'made up'. But it has its 'Black Beauty' moments.
