". . . Mr. Hubbard has reversed a time-honored formula and has given a thriller to which, at the end of every chapter or so, another paleface bites the dust . . .

New York Times ". . . a crack adventure yarn . . . exciting . . . historically accurate in its exposure . . . . Buckskin Brigades presents a new struggle and a new science in fiction." Durham Herald ". . . a thriller with a new locale . . . an adventure yarn with a distinct new setting in fiction . . . historically true . . . exciting reading." Raleigh Observer "It brings a bit of belated justice for the Indians." San Diego Union "Against a true historical background . . . moves an exciting tale of scalping parties and forest warfare, duly seasoned with romance . . . Good reading for the lovers of western and Indian lore." Atlanta Constitution ". . . Hubbard's most important contribution is a story told through the mind and body of an American Indian. That alone makes it worthwhile." The Forum - Fargo "Last year's hit was Dances With Wolves. This years hit is Buckskin Brigades." Audio World "Hubbard had created a memorable figure in Yellow Hair." St. Louis Post Dispatch "Hubbard's tale, based on fact, is quite believable and his use of American Indian lore should attract Tony Hillerman and Louis L'Amour fans." Library Journal
With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 230 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most acclaimed and widely read authors of our time. As a leading light of American Pulp Fiction through the 1930s and '40s, he is further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to L. Ron Hubbard.
