Janet Barrett has known about Comanche, the lone survivor of the Battle of the Little Bighorn, since her father first told her the story as a child. With the success of They Called Her Reckless, about the warhorse, Reckless, and her fellow Marines in the Korean War, Barrett knew it was time to go back to that earlier era and tell the whole story of the horse that brought fame to himself and his rider, Captain Myles Keogh, and a renewed sense of pride to the U.S. Seventh Cavalry. Her father would be proud of what developed from his early, gentle teaching.
