Summary: "Captain Carey; or, Fighting the Indians at Pine Ridge" by Lionel Lounsberry is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows Lieutenant Kit Carey, a dashing and brave officer in the U.S. Army, as he embarks on a perilous journey amidst rising tensions with the Sioux Indians. Carey's experiences and his commitment to protecting his companion, Miss Emma Foshay, highlight the complexities of frontier life, military duty, and the fraught relationship between settlers and Native Americans. In the opening portion, the narrative introduces Lieutenant Carey receiving new orders from Colonel Crandall, who expresses both pride and concern for him. Carey is assigned to escort Emma Foshay, who is determined to return home despite the looming threat of violence from the Sioux. As they set out, Carey reveals his premonition of danger based on his scouting reports indicating possible Indian hostilities. Their ride takes a dangerous turn when they encounter hostile Sioux warriors, forcing Carey to make difficult decisions to ensure Emma's safety while facing the impending conflict head-on.
