		Fort Atkinson faced several obstacles, the most serious of which were location in an area almost devoid of building materials and firewood and a very small garrison of troops.

		For the white man, Fort Atkinson was a small beginning in the quest for security along that overland route to the Southwest; for the Indian, it was the beginning of the end of domination on the Plains.
