Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
The wars between whites and Indians, 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 organisation and uniforms.

Great pictural guide April 29, 2008
As a re-enactor of 19th century military personnel, the pictures in this book are a great guide for assisting me with keeping my uniforms authentic to the time periods I am recreating.
