For those of us who are interested in historical photographs this book seems to be a must-have: Thomas R. Buecker
Last Days of Red Cloud Agency:
Peter T. Buckley's Photograph Collection, 1876-77"The book, completed by well-known Ft. Robinson historian Thomas R. Buecker just before his untimely death in 2015, presents a collection of stereo card photographs of the Oglala Lakota and Arapaho Indians at northwestern Nebraska's Red Cloud Agency, of the agency itself, and of other sites and landmarks in the vicinity. Peter T. Buckley, who worked at Camp (later Fort) Robinson, Nebraska, during those crucial years collected the work of multiple photographers. Many views are published here for the first time, and with those already familiar to historians, they tell a story of a land and culture in transition." www.nebraskahistory.org/publish/publicat/books/ourbooks/

I want to get this (and another NSHS book), but the postage from the USA is more than the cost of the book!

Fantastic book, though anyone who was around to cull the images when they appeared originally on Heitage Auctions would have obtained a better selection of the Indian photos.
