Soft cover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. This is a first (and only) edition detailing the historical conflict between the Bannock and Paiute Native American tribes and settlers in Oregon, 1878. Per the back cover, it is "an account of one of America's lease known wars, the effects of which resonate down to the present day, not only in the lives of the participants' descendants, but throughout society. Never dry or dull, this meticulously researched book gives the reader a sense of actually being on the ground where the tragic conflict played out. One is caught up in the action, wiping away the dust and grime of each battle. And unlike many such books, this one fairly presents the virtues and vices of both sides, the US Army and the Indian warriors." Contains historical photographs and maps. Soft cover shows signs of some water damage across the bottom with "curvy" pages. The front cover has a tear at lower left and back cover at lower right. All pages accounted for, no writing or bent pages, with some cracking of the spine on page 136. Please review the photos as they form an important part of the description.
