| Summary | "Personal Memoirs of P. H. Sheridan, Volume 2, Part 6" by Philip Henry Sheridan is a historical account that likely reflects events from the late 19th century. This volume particularly focuses on Sheridan’s military experiences during various campaigns, primarily involving his interactions with Native American tribes in relation to treaties and the conflicts that ensued following their signing. At the start of this part of Sheridan's memoirs, he describes his transition back to military life from a period in Louisiana and the subsequent journey to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. He details the context of unrest among Native Americans due to the encroachment of settlers and railroads on their territories, particularly after the Treaty of Medicine Lodge intended to secure peace. Sheridan recounts his initial assessment of the discontent among tribes such as the Cheyennes and Arapahoes, leading to increasing tensions exemplified by raids and acts of violence. He highlights the challenges faced in maintaining peace and order in a territory rife with hostilities, setting the stage for the military campaigns that follow throughout the memoir.
