Annotated Bibliography CHAPTER II: ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY INTRODUCTION This annotated bibliography examines nearly fifteen hundred primary and secondary sources that have relevance to those Indians who had an association with the trail. These work cover the years before, during, and after the onset and demise of the road. It is divided into seven subject categories: firsthand narratives, Santa Fe Trail histories, Indigenous nations studies, general histories, military histories, biographies, and bibliographies. Firsthand narratives provide insight for comprehending the ways in which nineteenth-century non-Indians viewed Indians and described encounters. Diaries, reports, correspondence, journals, and memoirs penned by government officials from various governments, missionaries, migrants, soldiers, adventurers, and others who had contact with Indians compose the vast majority of these sources. A few of these accounts provide reliable details about Indian customs, beliefs, social organizations, and while many others simply echo negative racial stereotypes and misinformation. Written histories are a starting point for gaining an understanding of how scholars from various disciplines and history buffs have contextualized Indian relations with the trail. Usually featuring the trail‟s travelers, hardships, growth, and functions, these studies are available in numerous books and journal articles. While presenting Indians with varying degrees of accuracy, detail, and sensitivity, these studies oftentimes highlight the trail‟s significance in the development of the United States with celebratory language and the language of racism. They frequently depict Indians as savage peoples who frequently posed trouble for intrepid trail travelers. Much of the most recent 19 research appears in Wagon Tracks, the official journal of the Santa Fe Trail Association. Each issue contains articles about some component of the trail‟s history that reference Indians. They also republished firsthand narratives and occasion print recent discoveries. Indigenous nation studies often provide useful information regarding how U.S. expansion and polices impacted Indian land tenure and cultures. These works in general provide a detailed look at the ways in which Indians interact with their surroundings and other peoples. Generally, the strength of many of these studies is that they rely heavily on information provided by cultural insiders. This emic approach, to a degree, enables individuals to express group norms, values, historical experiences, and relations with others. As with other studies considered by my research, some of these works are tainted by the researchers‟ racial biases. The general history section provides a discussion of books and articles pertaining to nineteenth-century topics with a direct or indirect connection to the trail and associated Indians. Written by a wide array of scholars, these studies discuss Indians, in varying degrees of value, in such contexts as the trans-Mississippi west, overland migrations, state histories, warfare, explorers, trappers, towns, disease, health seekers, colonial Spain, cattle drives, trading posts, economics, buffalo, surveyors, legal cases, pioneers, settlers, missionaries, U.S. Indian policy, treaties, Euroamerican women, gold seekers, social change, and roadside markers. The military history section focuses on the history of U.S. military relations with Indians on the plains and in the Southwest. These studies address peacetime relations as well as armed conflict. Some of them deal rather extensively with military operations against Indians in the vicinity of the trail. The biography listings examines studies about 20 many individuals, both Indian and non-Indians, who had contact with the trail and Indians associated with the road. Studies with the life stories of Indian leaders, U.S. army officers, trappers, colonizers, explorers, and others are included. Finally, the bibliography segment cites references that may lead researchers to sources about Indian nations, individuals, gold rushes, state histories, and other topics. A. Firsthand Narratives 1. Abert, James William. Expedition to the Southwest: An 1845 Reconnaissance of Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, and Oklahoma. Lincoln and London: University of Nebraska Press, 1999. In 1845, Abert, a U.S. Army Topographical Engineers lieutenant, documented his contact with Cheyennes and Apaches as his small party explored the Canadian River region of the southern plains, much of which was in Mexican territory, and traveled hundreds of miles over the Santa Fe Trail. On the Staked Plains while returning to the States, Abert met Kiowas and Comanches. 2. Abert, J. W. “Journal of Lt. J. W. Abert from Bent‟s Fort to St. Louis in 1845.” Introduction and notes by H. Bailey Carroll. Panhandle-Plains Historical Review 14 (1941). First officially published in the Senate Documents, 29th Congress, 1st sess. under the title of “Journal of Lieutenant J. W. Abert from Bent‟s Fort to St. Louis in 1845,” Abert describes his experiences interacting with Cheyennes at Bent‟s Fort at a time when those Indians were on peaceful terms with Euroamericans. 3.

Notes of a Military Reconnoissance, from Fort Leavenworth, in Missouri, to San Diego, in California, Including Part of the Arkansas, Del Norte, and Gila Rivers. Washington: Wendell and Van Benthuysen, Printers, 1848. Abert provides detailed information about his encounters with Indians during his 1846 explorations. At Bent‟s Fort, he recorded his daily interaction with Cheyennes. In New Mexico, he observed Pueblo Indians in Santa Fe and the surrounding countryside. On his return trip, he and his fellow travelers had a tense meeting with some Pawnees. 4. [Abert, Lt. J. W.] U. S. Army Corps of Topographical Engineers.

Abert of the Topographical Engineers, 21 Artists Extraordinary Whose Painting of Indians and the Wild West Illustrate this Book. Edited by John Galvin. San Francisco: J. Howell Books, 1970. First published in 1846 under the title of “Message from the President of the United States ... communicating a report of an expedition led by Lieutenant Abert on the upper Arkansas,” Abert documents his stay at Bent‟s Fort from August 2 to 9, 1845, and contacts with Cheyennes through his diary, paintings and drawings. The diary describes the Indians that his small party met as they moved southward to the Moro River and then eastward to Fort Gibson. 5. Abert, J. W. Western American in 1846-1847: The Original Travel Diary of Lieutenant J. W. Abert who Mapped New Mexico for the United States Army with Illustrations in Color from His Sketchbook. Edited by John Galvin. San Francisco: John Howell, 1966. This volume contains Abert‟s field notebook that records the journey of his party from Fort Leavenworth to Santa Fe in 1846 and 1847. His party met Pawnees, Apaches, Arapahos, Comanches, Cheyennes, Kaws, and others. It lists some Indian words. 6. Alexander, Eveline M. Cavalry Wife: The Diary of Eveline M. Alexander, 1866- 1867. Edited by Sandra L. Myres. College Station: Texas A&M University Press, 1977. In her diary, Alexander, who held racial biases toward Indians, Mexicans and Black soldiers, recorded her observations of Indian-Euroamerican relations following the Civil War as she traveled in New Mexico and Colorado. In the summer of 1866, accompanied by her colonel husband and U.S. soldiers, she spent a few days at Ft. Union before journeying northward on the trail to Fort Stevens in Colorado. On August 23, south of Raton Pass, she reported seeing a Ute “buck” and “squaw” riding separate horses. Alexander‟s account notes Mohuache Utes conflict with the U.S. military and settlers near Trinidad and at Fort Stevens. Those Utes, as Alexander learned from Kit Carson, viewed the arrival of Euroamericans as a threat to their way of life. While visiting Bosque Redondo, she commented on the conditions facing Navajos incarcerated there. 7. Allen, Alonzo, H. “Pioneer Life in Old Burlington, Forerunner of Longmont.” Colorado Magazine 14 (July 1937): 145-57. Using the language of racism, Allen writes about pioneer lore regarding Indian- Euroamerican relations in Colorado north of the trail, asserting that Indians were content to beg for food. He stated that in 1864 at Sand Creek Colonel John M. Chivington‟s men attacked [Cheyenne] Indians who had killed immigrants, burnt wagons, and stole livestock. 22 8. Allyn, Joseph Pratt. The Arizona of Joseph Pratt Allyn, Letters from a Pioneer Judge: Observations and Travels, 1863-1866. Edited by John Nicolson. Tucson: University of Arizona Press, 1974.

Allyn‟s letters describe his travel from Santa Fe to Arizona. His experiences on the Santa Fe Trail are found in West by Southwest. 9. ––––––––––. West by Southwest; Letters of Joseph Pratt Allyn, a Traveller along the Santa Fe Trail, 1863. Dodge City: Kansas Heritage Center, 1984. Traveling westward in 1863 with a party of Arizona territorial officials and a motley crew of U.S. army escorts on the military road from Fort Leavenworth through Topeka, Manhattan, Junction City, Fort Riley, and Salina, Allyn reached the Santa Fe Trail near Pawnee Rock. He describes the people, “embryo” towns, military posts, helter-skelter buffalo hunting of his companions, and Indians he saw along the way. At Fort Larned, he interacted with Caddos, Indians loyal to the Union who had been driven northward by white Texans. 10. ––––––––––.

  • AMERICAN EXPERIENCE Presents Custer's Last Stand
    AMERICAN EXPERIENCE Presents Custer’s Last Stand New Two-Hour Documentary Explores the Life of One of the Most Controversial and Mythic Figures in American History Premieres Tuesday, January 17, 2012 8:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. ET on PBS America had just finished celebrating its 100th birthday, when, on July 6, 1876, the telegraph brought word that General George Armstrong Custer and 261 members of his Seventh Cavalry column had been massacred by Cheyenne and Lakota warriors along the Little Bighorn River in Montana Territory. The news was greeted with stunned disbelief. How could Custer, the “boy general” of the Civil War, America’s most celebrated Indian fighter, the avatar of western expansion, have been struck down by a group of warriors armed with little more than bows and arrows? Like everything else about Custer, his martyrdom was shrouded in controversy and contradictions, and the final act of his larger-than-life career was played out on a grand stage with a spellbound public engrossed in the drama. In the end, his death would launch one of the greatest myths in American history. Custer’s Last Stand, a new two-hour biography of one of the most celebrated and controversial icons of nineteenth-century America, paints a penetrating psychological portrait of Custer’s charismatic, narcissistic personality, and for the first time on television, explores the fateful relationships within the officers of the Seventh Cavalry that would lead him to his doom. This new biography allows viewers to take a fresh look at Custer’s passionate love affair with his wife Libbie, and their mutually ambitious partnership that made them the power couple of the 1870s.

    HEALTH AND MEDICAL CARE OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INDIANS, 1868-1892 By VIRGINIA RUTH ALLEN ll Bachelor of Science Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 1952 Master of Teaching Central State University Edmond, Oklahoma 1968 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY July, 1973 OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY FEB I;; 1974 HEALTH AND MEDICAL CARE OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INDIANS, 1868-1892 Thesis Approved: Dea/] ~ ~Iege 87321~ ii PREFACE During the years from 1868 to 1892, the Southern Plains Indians were defeated in war, their population decreased by battle and disease, and their economic system destroyed. They were relocated on reservations where they were subjected to cultural shock by their white conquerors. They endured hunger, disease, and despair. Many studies have been made of the warfare and the ultimate defeat of the Indians. None have explored the vital topic of the health of these people. No other factor is so vital to the success or failure of human endeavor. This study focuses on the government medical care provided the Plains Indians on the Cheyenne-Arapahoe and Kiowa­ Comanche reservations. It also expl6res the cultural con­ flict between the white man's medicine and the native medicine men, and what effect that conflict and other contacts with white men had on Indian health. I wish to acknowledge the generous and kind assis­ tance I received from numerous people during the research and writing of this dissertation. First, I would like to thank Doctor Homer L.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. STRANGERS IN A STRANGE LAND: A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE OF THE COLUMBIAN QUINCENTENARY* RENNARD STRICKLAND** The title Strangers in a Strange Land comes from a letter which John Rollin Ridge, the first Native American to practice law in California, wrote from the gold fields back to his Uncle Stand Wa- tie in the Indian Territory. "I was a stranger in a strange land," he began. "I knew no one, and looking at the multitude that thronged the streets, and passed each other without a friendly sign, or look of recognition even, I began to think I was in a new world, where all were strangers and none cared to know."' The last five hundred years-the Columbian Quincentenary-is captured for the Native American in the phrase-"a new world, where all were strangers," with Native Americans as the "stran- gers in a strange land [which] none cared to know." I believe from my historical studies that the so-called "Columbian Ex- change" symbolizes the triumph of technology over axe- ology-the ascendancy of industry over humanity.

  • 'The Lightning Mule Brigade: Abel Streight's 1863 Raid Into Alabama'
    H-Indiana McMullen on Willett, 'The Lightning Mule Brigade: Abel Streight's 1863 Raid into Alabama' Review published on Monday, May 1, 2000 Robert L. Willett, Jr. The Lightning Mule Brigade: Abel Streight's 1863 Raid into Alabama. Carmel: Guild Press of Indiana, 1999. 232 pp. $18.95 (paper), ISBN 978-1-57860-025-0. Reviewed by Glenn L. McMullen (Curator of Manuscripts and Archives, Indiana Historical Society) Published on H-Indiana (May, 2000) A Union Cavalry Raid Steeped in Misfortune Robert L. Willett's The Lightning Mule Brigade is the first book-length treatment of Indiana Colonel Abel D. Streight's Independent Provisional Brigade and its three-week raid in spring 1863 through Northern Alabama to Rome, Georgia. The raid, the goal of which was to cut Confederate railroad lines between Atlanta and Chattanooga, was, in Willett's words, a "tragi-comic war episode" (8). The comic aspects stemmed from the fact that the raiding force was largely infantry, mounted not on horses but on fractious mules, anything but lightning-like, justified by military authorities as necessary to take it through the Alabama mountains. Willett's well-written and often moving narrative shifts between the forces of the two Union commanders (Streight and Brig. Gen. Grenville Dodge) and two Confederate commanders (Col. Phillip Roddey and Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest) who were central to the story, staying in one camp for a while, then moving to another. The result is a highly textured and complex, but enjoyable, narrative. Abel Streight, who had no formal military training, was proprietor of the Railroad City Publishing Company and the New Lumber Yard in Indianapolis when the war began.

  • Native American Plaster Sculpture Conservation
    Chief Manuelito Sculpture CITY HALL, GALLUP, NM SERVICES PERFORMED Chief Manuelito served as an important Navajo leader in the mid-19th century against the Conservation Treatments encroachment of the U. S. Government. Kit Carson’s scorched earth campaign left many native people Investigation, Testing & Analysis starving though until they were forced to turn themselves in. Throughout this period, Manuelito led Maintenance Programs attacks and remained among the last to surrender. He remained a popular leader, advocating for Plaster Conservation perseverance in the native culture and advancement through education. He is represented here by the Plaster Fabrication artist Hermon Atkins MacNeil, who created several other notable sculptures of Native American subjects and themes. Research & Documentation Surveys & Condition Assessments The Chief Manuelito sculpture was created using wood, plaster, and paint. Past cleaning eorts had caused signicant damage. Cracks in the gypsum and plaster layers were associated with the movement of the wooden armature. The sculpture had areas of loss, and areas of visible previous repairs. We were contracted to perform the sculptures’s plaster and paint conservation treatment. After the condition assessment, paint samples were collected and investigated to develop the earliest color compositions, likely paint scheme, and pattern of the blanket. Treatment of the sculpture itself proceeded in three parts: structural stabilization and integration of new base and support components, consolidation and repair of deteriorated decorative plasterwork, and paint removal along with repainting where needed. We also provided guidance for the display of the sculpture, and a maintenance plan for its continued preservation.

  • United States Army Scouts: the Southwestern
    3-/71 UNITED STATES ARMY SCOUTS: THE SOUTHWESTERN EXPERIENCE, 1866-1890 THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS By Carol Conley Nance, B. A. Denton, Texas May, 1975 Nance, Carol Conley, United States Army Scouts: The Southwestern Experience, 1866-1890. Master of Arts (History), May, 1975, 156 pp., 4 maps, bibliography, 107 titles. In the post-Civil War Southwest, the United States Army utilized civilians and Indians as scouts. As the mainstay of the reconnaissance force, enlisted Indians excelled as trackers, guides, and fighters. General George Crook became the foremost advocate of this service. A little-known aspect of the era was the international controversy created by the activities of native trackers under the 1882 recipro- cal hot pursuit agreement between Mexico and the United States. Providing valuable information on Army scouts are numerous government records which include the Annual Report of the Secretary of War from 1866 to 1896 and Foreign Relations of the United States for 1883 and 1886. Memoirs, biographies, and articles in regional and national histori- cal journals supplement government documents. TABLE OF CONTENTS Page LIST OF MAPS . iv Chapter I.
