About the author

Henry Ossian Flipper

1856–1940

Best known as the first Black graduate of West Point, he lived a life shaped by ambition, injustice, and remarkable reinvention. After his Army career was cut short, he built a second act as an engineer, surveyor, translator, and writer in the American West and beyond.
