Published by the Kansas State Historical Society, and available direct from them.
Separate volumes cover Forts Dodge, Harker, Hays, Larned, Leavenworth, Riley, Scott, and Wallace. I've only read the Fort Wallace one, by Leo E. Oliva, as yet. It's excellently researched, with some rare photographic illustrations; if the others are as good -- and I'm sure they are -- the series represents a fabulous mine of information for anyone interested in the pre-LBH 7th Cavalry.
