More DescriptionImmigrant Patrick Kelly is an eyewitness to the behind-the-scenes events during America’s conquering of its great frontiers. His life spans from hand-to-hand combat against Crazy Horse to the twilight’s last gleaming of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, and along the way he brushes up against the mythic figures who helped shape history—General Crook, Crazy Horse, Geronimo, Roosevelt, Patton and Eisenhower.
