- TriviaIn a handful of instances throughout the Old West, people survived being scalped and went on to live full lives. In at least one instance, a surgeon was able to reattach the severed scalp to the victim's head.
- GoofsThe series is supposed to be taking place in 1883, yet the wagon train is attacked by free ranging Lakota. By 1883, the Lakota had been beaten down and were restricted to and controlled on reservations. Little Bighorn was fought in June, 1876, resulting in an overwhelming victory for the Lakota. The Lakota then spent the next several months skirmishing and dodging the Army. By May, 1877, with their people starving, Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse split. Sitting Bull fled to Canada leaving Crazy Horse to go to Fort Robinson to surrender. The Army spent the next 13 years restricting the movement and actions of the Lakota on reservations. In 1881, Sitting Bull returned to the US with the rest of the Lakota to surrender. Then the Army had little to no more trouble with the Lakota until the Ghost Dance scare of 1890. So, it was completely unrealistic to have a Lakota hunting party, turned war party, roaming the plains in 1883. The Army would not have allowed such a large hunting party (and accompanied by women and children) to leave the reservation. Perhaps parties of two or three could have sneaked off the reservation. But a hunting party this large (particularly with this many women and children) would have drawn the attention of the Army, which would have then sent a detail out after them to bring them back to the reservation.
- Quotes
Elsa Dutton: I looked at my father, looked past his smile. Saw his worry. Saw something deeper, as if he were already in mourning, as if I were already gone.
Featured review
Gripping!
Another stunning episode. The writers make so many good choices showing the difficulty of trying to lead when everything is unknown and every option is equally bad.
These episodes just fly by they are so engrossing.
