Buffalo Soldiers fought the tribes of The West, that's what they're known for, but they also fought in the Spanish American War, during the revolution in the Philippines and also in North Idaho during the Coeur d'Alene Mining Wars and the Big Burn in 1910. We compare the service of Buffalo Soldiers during both events and examine how the largely white inhabitants of North Idaho viewed the black soldiers in both instances.
