    Great!
    Really enjoyable, exciting documentary about the wars on the great Plains between the American Indians and the US cavalry. Covered a number of skirmishes and engagements which I had not heard of before, along with the more famous characters such as Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse and Geronimo. Recommend on Prime.
