Description

The American-Indian wars might be thought of as one 400-year-long war that was made up of a great many smaller splinter wars and campaigns. This reference work on conflicts that occurred in the area that eventually became the United States includes some 450 alphabetically arranged, cross-referenced entries that explore major campaigns and battles, treaties, forts, battle locations, military and political leaders, tribal weapons and practices, and Anglo-European firearms and military strategies. Includes some (well-chosen) b&w illustrations. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
