Hardback, 1998 This is an excellent - and I would argue very readable - contribution to the history of America's expansion west and its impact on Native Americans. West is a fine historian and a fine writer who captures the complexities of the interactions of Europeans and Native Americans in the Colorado area very well. This book was a very informative source of information. I would only buy it if I wanted to learn about early Indian history. If I were not reading this book to gain knowledge I would not read it to be entertained. This is a hard to read book and only for in deaph research. I'ts rated at 16.3 for hardness to read in one paragraph. In another paragraph it's rated 10.0. So it is a very hard book to read. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
