Indian Western

The Civil War is over. Texas is determined to make its frontier settlements safe for land-hungry, pioneering immigrants on the move. Emil Webb, a young Union Army veteran, has gone west to start a new life as a rancher on the wild, rugged, and hostile Texas frontier. A marauding band of Comanches and a wild gang of Texas outlaws put a quick end to Emil’s dream. The young war veteran makes up his mind to help the cowed homesteaders of Texas and himself by joining the Texas Rangers and helping bring law and order to the chaotic frontier.

The compelling account of how two heritages united in their struggle to gain freedom and equality in America. The first paths to freedom taken by runaway slaves led to Native American villages. There, black men and women found acceptance and friendship among our country's original inhabitants. Though they seldom appear in textbooks and movies, the children of Native and African American marriages helped shape the early days of the fur trade, added a new dimension to frontier diplomacy, and made a daring contribution to the fight for American liberty.

With the end of the Civil War, the nation recommenced its expansion onto traditional Indian tribal lands, setting off a wide-ranging conflict that would last more than three decades. In an exploration of the wars and negotiations that destroyed tribal ways of life even as they made possible the emergence of the modern United States, Peter Cozzens gives us both sides in comprehensive and singularly intimate detail.
