Boots and Saddles

Boots and Saddles

Immerse yourself in the rugged yet intimate world of life at a U.S. cavalry post in the Dakotas, as suggested by the evocative title. This podcast invites you to explore the multifaceted experiences of those who lived through the trials and triumphs of military life in the 1870s. Each episode features a new complete audiobook that delves into the unique stories of soldiers, their families, and the diverse cast of characters that formed the army community, from the strong-willed officers' wives to the resilient enlisted men and their Indian scouts. The narratives reveal not just the challenges of isolation and duty, but also the bonds of camaraderie and love that flourished in such a setting. This is not a single story but a series of unique explorations that capture the essence of a bygone era. Join us to discover a new book with every episode and gain a deeper understanding of the human experience in a time of both hardship and hope.
