The Last Frontier a New Edition with a Special Introduction by the Author

Originally published in 1941, The Last Frontier is the story of the Cheyenne Indians in the 1870s, and their bitter struggle to flee from the Indian Territory in Oklahoma back to their home in Wyoming and Montana. Some 300 Indians, led by Little Wolf, fought against General Crook and 10,000 troops, with only 60 finally making it through to freedom. Fast extensively researched this book in the late 1930s, visiting and speaking with Cheyenne experts in Norman, Oklahoma. This was the first of Fast's many books to gain a wide popular audience; it was eventually made by John Ford into the classic film Cheyenne Autumn (1964).

  • "V roce 1878 bylo v Oklahomě, v pustém a nejméně přitažlivém kraji planin, kongresem vyhrazeno území nazvané "Indiánské teritorium". Postupně zde měly být umístěny všecky zbytky indiánských kmenů, které sedosudpotulovalyjakosvobodní lidé. Fast popisuje dramatickou odysseu Cheyennů, jimž se podařilo z reservace uprchnout. Byla vyslána trestná výprava, mající je přivléci zpět. Indiáni však raději volili smrt než návrat, ztrátusvobody.VnewyorskémHeraldu z 18. ledna 1879 bylo stručně oznámeno: "Sekretář Schurz odmítl hovořit o této záležitosti". A názor velícího generála: "Jistý počet neukázněných, lstivých, zákeřnických Indiánů, kteří nemají ani špetkuohleduknašimvojákům, se pokusil uniknout a užil násilí, aby mohl pokračovat ve svém odbojném záměru. Bylo s nimi zacházeno tak, jak zasluhovali." Několika desítkám těch, jimž se útěk podařil, byla pod tlakem veř. mínění věnovánavolnost."
  • "August, 1879. Unable to survive any longer, a tiny village of half-starved Cheyennes quit their blighted reservation and begin an incredible 1000-mile trek back to the land they'd once called home. Thus begins one of the most remarkable struggles in America's history."@en
  • "The flight of a remnant of the Cheyennes back to the Black Hills of Wyoming after having been herded into Indian Territory in Oklahoma by the United States government."
