Covering 60 years of merciless bloody conflict, it documents in infinite detail every major engagement ever fought in the West between the white men and Indians. An epic study of the savage struggle to carve an empire out of the wilderness and a grim commentary on the white man's treatment of the original Americans, MASSACRES OF THE MOUNTAINS, in 672 fascinating pages, chronicles the difficulties behind the battles, why and where ~ and by whom ~ the first shots were fired, and the final results. According to General George Crook, "Greed and avarice on the part of the whites ~ in other words, the almighty dollar ~ is at the bottom of nine~tenths of all our Indian troubles." Mr. Dunn explains why Crook made this statement, and why all of the other great fighting generals tried to intercede in favor of the Indians they had been ordered to annihilate. He also details the inhuman conditions under which the Indians were forced to live as a result of subjugation by the white men . the way the Piegans ate bark from trees in an effort to stay alive, the way the Nez Perce were scalped and their women raped while they themselves fought humanely, the way the Cheyennes were slaughtered without provocation. Astonishingly alive, MASSACRES OF THE MOUNTAINS is an absolute must for every library, historian, and serious student of the Far West. Virtually unobtainable at any price for more than 70 years, this handsome unexpurgated volume should be read by every American who has any interest at all in the history of his country. About the author: Jacob Piatt Dunn was Secretary of the Indiana Historical Society in 1886, State Librarian between 1889 and 1893, editorial writer for the Indianapolis Sentinel between 1889 and 1904, Indianapolis City Comptroller between 1904 and 1906 and again from 1914 to 1916, and Private Secretary to Senator S. M. Ralston in 1923.

Partly because of its rarity, but mainly because of its extraordinary evocation of a land that has vanished beneath the plow, the book's reputation has only increased among scholars, rare book collectors, and Americana enthusiasts as a prime source~book on the lore and legend of the West. When Colonel Dodge first visited the plains of the West they had only been partly explored. As he says in his introductory chapter, what had early attracted him was the legend on the map~"unknown territory," and the words "The great American Desert." Its mile~wide rivers, limitless horizons, canyons mesas, and mountains were to prove an iresistible lure, as he spent most of his life on the frontier. Fortunately for us it was just before this great tract of virgin wilderness was to disappear forever before the encroach ments of industrial civilization. Inevitably, it is a tragic story~that of the rapacity of man in the face of a continent of seemingly inexhaustible wealth. The author's description of the slaughter of the buffalo, which in three short years were reduced to a straggling few from the endless hordes which impeded the passage of trains across the prairie, alone entitles the book to permanent place in the annals of the West. The book is divided into three sections:Topography of the Plains ~ Natural Wonders, Climate, and Travel; Game Animals and Hunting Exploits; Indians and Indian life. The twenty wood engravings and map are reprinted from the first edition. As a footnote to literary history, it is interesting to note that the volume was translated into German and published in Vienna in 1884. It was largely responsible for the great European vogue for the "Wild West as exemplified by Karl May and other novelists who never left their native shores ~ convincing testimony to the power and authenticity of the Colonel's book. Richard Irving Dodge was born in Huntseville, North Carolina, in 1827. He graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1848 and was assigned to the 8th Infantry After serving at various western posts he was promoted to captain in 1861. During the Civil War he served as mustering and disbursing officer, was appointed Assistant Inspector General of the 4th Army Corps in 1863, and promoted to Major in 1864. He was a member of a board to perfect a system of army~regulations in New York City in 1871 and 1872 Promoted to Lieutenant Colonel in 1873, from that time on he was engaged in the campaigns against the hostile Indians of the West. He was appointed Colonel of the 11th Infantry in 1882, a position he held until his death in 1895. His books include The Black Hills, The Plains of the Great West, Thirty~Three Years Among Our Wild Indians, and A Living Issue.
