The American Indian Wars 1860-90 Paperback - 1992

by Philip Katcher; Gerry Embleton (Illustrator)


From the publisher

The American Indian Wars, the most famous of which were fought on the great Western plains between 1860 and 1890, were among the most tragic of all conflicts ever fought. To the victor went no less than the complete domination of the continent, to the loser total extinction. Accustomed only to small scale skirmishing and raiding, the Indians were doomed from the start. They had never fought a European-style war with its constant pressure and co-ordinated strategies. Philip Katcher details the armies of both sides, paying particular attention to their organization and uniforms.

First line

'With a stupidity strictly consistent with the whole history of our contact with the aboriginies,' wrote an officer who spent some years in the Apache homeland, the south-west, 'the people of the United States have maintained a bitter and unrelenting warfare against a people whose name was unknown to them.
