Black Frontiersman is Flippers autobiographical account of his service with the Tenth U.S. Cavalry in Texas and Oklahoma and his years as a civilian that followed - one of only a handful of such accounts by a black American. Although Flippers years on the western frontier have been well documented by historians, this revised and updated volume of Theodore D. Harris Negro Frontiersman includes a new introduction, expanded endnotes and little known and previously unpublished materials. Flippers memoirs detail his time spent on the U.S.-Mexican border, his adventures in Sonora and Chihuahua before the Mexican Revolution, his time as an aide to U.S. Senator Albert Bacon Fall, and his later recollections on race and politics in the 1930s.
