Indian scouts and auxiliaries played a central role in the effort, participating in virtually every campaign. In this comprehensive account of the \"wolves\" (as scouts were designated in sign language), Thomas W. Dunlay describes how and why they served the army, how they were viewed by the military and their own tribes, and what wider implications their service held.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThomas W.
