The Bloody & Brave History of Native American Warriors & the Women Who Supported Them Illustrated
Introduction
• 10 New Historic Illustrations & Photographs Added to this Revised and Updated Edition
• Foreword and Edited by Chet Dembeck
There is nothing more inspiring nor tragic than the bloody and brave history of Native American warriors and the heroic deeds of their women.
Fighting against incredible odds, such as being hopelessly outnumbered, out gunned and subjected to deadly diseases brought by a hostile invader, the American Indians fought on almost to the last man, women and child.
This 399-page put together by the late Edwin Sabin gives a thorough yet readable account of the awesome feats and bravery of the great warrior leaders of these ancient peoples that occupied and cultivated this continent thousands of years before the white man stumbled upon it by mistake.

Excellent history
There is so much of this history that is never mentioned in our history books. So much is made of slavery in the U.S. but no one mentions the genocide that our government practiced as our "Manifest Destiny" against the Native Americans. We still discriminate against the Indian, particularly out West. Even today you can not purchase alcoholic beverages on the reservation. Our govt signed over 56 treaties with the Indians and never intended to keep the treaties to begin with. Although black slaves were killed, slaves were not slaughtered in the numbers that the Indians were, to include their families.
