A renowned activist recalls his childhood years in an Indian boarding school

Pipestone

ne e pip sto e agl f ortunat My Life in an Indian Boarding School By Adam Fortunate Eagle Afterword by Laurence M. Hauptman

“For those convinced that Indian boarding schools were solely instruments of psychological and cultural oppression, Fortunate Eagle’s account will be both surprising and unsettling. Pipestone is artfully told, frequently humorous, and deeply moving.”—David Wallace Adams, author of Education for Extinction: American Indians and the Boarding School Experience, 1875–1928

Best known as a leader of the Indian takeover of Alcatraz Island in 1969, Adam Fortunate Eagle now offers an unforgettable memoir of his years as a young student at Pipestone Indian Boarding School in Minnesota. In this rare firsthand account, Fortunate Eagle lives up to his reputation as a “contrary warrior” by disproving the original paperback popular view of Indian boarding schools as bleak and prisonlike. March $19.95 Paper 978-0-8061-4114-5 Fortunate Eagle attended Pipestone between 1935 and 1945, just as Commissioner 248 pages, 5.5 x 8.5 of Indian Affairs John Collier’s pluralist vision was reshaping the federal boarding 32 b&w illus. American Indian school system to promote greater respect for Native cultures and traditions. But this book is hardly a dry history of the late boarding school era. Telling this story in the voice of his younger self, the author takes us on a delightful journey into his childhood and the inner world of the boarding school. Along the way, he shares anecdotes of dormitory culture, student pranks, and warrior games. Although Fortunate Eagle recognizes Pipestone’s shortcomings, he describes his time there as nothing less than “a little bit of heaven.”

When I Came West By Laurie Wagner Buyer

“A tour de force, brilliant, utterly candid, and unforgettable.”—Dale L. Walker, author of Eldorado and Pacific Destiny

As a young college student in the early 1970s, Laurie Wagner had never camped out, never gone hiking, and never lived without electricity or indoor plumbing. Yet she walked away from these comforts and headed for the wildest reaches of Montana to live with a man she had not met in person.

When I Came West is Laurie Wagner Buyer’s account of her terrifying and exhilarating years in Montana as she changes from a girl too squeamish to touch a dead mouse to a toughened frontierswoman unafraid to butcher a domestic animal. Living in a cabin far away from family and friends, with the nearest neighbor four miles away, Laurie finds herself caught up in two love affairs: one with the volatile Vietnam vet Bill and one with the untamed West—even as she recognizes, in the words of one original paperback neighbor, “It is plumb foolishness to love something that cannot love you back.” March $14.95 Paper 978-0-8061-4059-9 While her relationship with Bill grows precarious, Laurie forges a lasting relationship 200 pages, 5.5 x 8.5 with her surroundings: the rivers, the wildlife, and the people who inhabit such remote 17 B&W Illus. memoir corners. Peeling away the romance of escaping to the wilderness, When I Came West reveals the brutality and bounty of a world far removed from modern urban life.

Laurie Wagner Buyer, an award-winning novelist and poet, is the author of several works, including Across the High Divide and Side Canyons. When she is not hiking in the high country or on the road leading workshops, she resides in Llano, Texas.

ai A graceful, brutally honest account of Vietnam in the wake of the horrible massacre A ft er My L ra y B After My Lai My Year Commanding First Platoon, Charlie Company By Gary W. Bray In the fall of 1969, Gary Bray landed in South Vietnam as a recently married, freshly minted second lieutenant in the U.S. Army. His assignment was not enviable: leading the platoon whose former members had committed the My Lai massacre—the murder of hundreds of Vietnamese civilians—eighteen months earlier. In this compelling memoir, he shares his experiences of Vietnam in the direct wake of that terrible event.

After My Lai documents the war’s horrific effects on both sides of the struggle. Bray presents the Vietnam conflict as the touchstone of a generation, telling how his feelings about being a soldier—a family tradition—were dramatically altered by the events he participated in and witnessed. He explains how young men, angered by the deaths of comrades and with no release for their frustration, can sometimes cross the

March $16.95 Paper 978-0-8061-4045-2 Bray’s account differs from many Vietnam memoirs in his vivid descriptions of 184 pages, 5.5 x 8.5 platoon-level tactical operations.

Gary W. Bray is a retired business owner who lives in Stigler, Oklahoma. While serving in Vietnam, he was awarded the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star.

Wyoming range war a r The Infamous Invasion of Johnson County By John W. Davis Wyoming attorney John W. Davis retells the story of the West’s most notorious range war. Having delved more deeply than previous writers into land and census records, newspapers, and trial transcripts, Davis has produced an all-new interpretation. He looks at the conflict from the perspective of Johnson County residents—those whose home territory was invaded and many of whom the invaders targeted for murder— and finds that, contrary to the received explanation, these people were not thieves and rustlers but legitimate citizens.

The broad outlines of the conflict are familiar: some of Wyoming’s biggest cattlemen, under the guise of eliminating livestock rustling on the open range, hire two-dozen Texas cowboys and, with range detectives and prominent members of the Wyoming Stock Growers Association, “invade” north-central Wyoming to clean out rustlers and other undesirables. While the invaders kill two suspected rustlers, citizens may mobilize and eventually turn the tables, surrounding the intruders at a ranch where $29.95 Cloth 978-0-8061-4106-0 they intend to capture them by force. An appeal for help convinces President Benjamin 384 pages, 6.125 x 9.25 25 B&W Illus., 1 Map Harrison to call out the army from nearby Fort McKinley, and after an all-night ride western history the soldiers arrive just in time to stave off the invaders’ annihilation. Though taken prisoner, they later avoid prosecution.

The cattle barons’ powers of persuasion in justifying their deeds have colored accounts of the war for more than a century. The Johnson County War tells a compelling story that redraws the lines between heroes and villains.

Recounts the rise and fall of this famous 1960s community opp er s e ws Dr M atth Droppers America’s First Hippie Commune, Drop City By Mark Matthews Sex, drugs, and rock ’n’ roll. In popular imagination, these words seem to capture the atmosphere of 1960s hippie communes. Yet when the first hippie commune was founded in 1965 outside Trinidad, Colorado, the goal wasn’t one long party but rather a new society that integrated life and art. In Droppers, Mark Matthews chronicles the rise and fall of this utopian community, exploring the goals behind its creation and the factors that eventually led to its dissolution.

Seeking refuge from enforced social conformity, the turmoil of racial conflict, and the Vietnam War, artist Eugene Bernofsky and other founders of Drop City sought to create an environment that would promote both equality and personal autonomy. These high ideals became increasingly hard to sustain, however, in the face of external pressures and internal divisions.

Matthews bases his account on numerous interviews with Bernofsky and other residents as well as written sources.

Introduction by Melody M. Miyamoto Volum The diaries and letters of women on the overland trails in the mid- to late nineteenth e 2 e century are treasured documents. These eleven selections drawn from the multivolume Covered Wagon Women series present the best first-person trail accounts penned by women in their teens who traveled west between 1846 and 1898. Ranging in age from eleven to nineteen, unmarried and without children of their own, these diarists had experiences different from those of older women who carried heavier responsibilities with them on the trail.

These letters and diaries reflect both the unique perspective of youthful optimism and the experiences common among all female emigrants. The young women write original paperback of friendship and family, trail hardships, and explorations such as visits to Indian may gravesites. Some like Sallie Hester even write of enjoying the company of men, and $19.95 Paper 978-0-8061-4104-6 many speculate about marriage prospects.

Fills a significant gap in our understanding of the

omis e legendary expedition

River of Promise nicandri r i ver of p Lewis and Clark on the Columbia By David L. Nicandri Foreword by Clay S. Jenkinson In the many published accounts of the Lewis and Clark expedition, historians have tended to undervalue the explorers’ encounter with Columbia River country. Most narratives emphasize Lewis and Clark’s adventures through their journey to the Bitterroot Mountains but have said little about the rest of their travels west of there.

River of Promise fills a significant gap in our understanding of Lewis and Clark’s legendary expedition. Historian David L. Nicandri shifts the focus to an essential goal of the explorers: to discover the headwaters of the Columbia and a water route to the Pacific Ocean. He also restores William Clark in his role as the primary geographic problem-solver of the partnership. Most historians assume that Meriwether Lewis was a more distinguished scientist than Clark because of his formal training in Distributed for the Dakota Institute Philadelphia and superior writing skills. Here we see Clark as Lewis’s equal as

april scientific geographer, not merely the practical manager of boats and personnel. $29.95 Cloth 978-0-9825597-0-3 325 pages, 6 x 9 Nicandri places the legend of Sacagawea in clearer perspective by focusing instead on 28 b&w illus. the contributions of often-overlooked Indian leaders in Columbia River country. He history also offers many points of comparison to other explorers and a provocative analysis of Lewis’s suicide in 1809, arguing that it was not a sudden event but fruit of a seed planted much earlier, quite possibly in Columbia country.

David L. Nicandri is director of the Washington State Historical Society. He is the Executive Editor of Columbia Magazine and author of many books and articles. Clay S. Jenkinson, well known for his historical impersonations of Thomas Jefferson and Meriwether Lewis, is the author of The Character of Meriwether Lewis. oupress.com · 800-627-7377 11

Pilgrim Eye Photographs and text by David Halpern Foreword by Bill Sontag David Halpern’s life and career span remarkable developments in the history of modern photography, from the introduction of Kodachrome film in 1936 to the current digital era. As a fine art and commercial photographer, perennial student and teacher with a passion for sharing, Halpern has embraced each new technology and applied them to a wide range of subjects.

In Pilgrim Eye, Halpern’s first book to showcase his award-winning fine art and landscape imagery, he provides a revealing glimpse into his lifelong journey of self- discovery. The book showcases 128 color and black-and-white photographs made over more than fifty years of pilgrimages across America—from the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee to Thomas Bay, Alaska, and from Acadia National Park in Maine to Joshua Tree National Park in the California desert.

How a famed unit of redcoats reflected a transatlantic identity al A m er i c a n R eg im en t

y The Royal American Regiment An Atlantic Microcosm, 1755–1772 By Alexander V. Campbell In the wake of Braddock’s defeat at Fort Duquesne in 1755, the British army raised ampb e ll T h Ro C the 60th, or Royal American, Regiment of Foot to fight the French and Indian War. Each of the regiment’s four battalions saw action in pivotal battles throughout the conflict. And as Alexander Campbell shows, the inclusion of foreign mercenaries and immigrant colonists alongside British volunteers made the RAR a microcosm of the Atlantic world. Not just a potent, combat-ready force, it played a key role in trade, migration, Indian diplomacy, and settlement.

This book moves beyond the campaign orientation of most regimental histories to explore how the Royal Americans helped forge new Atlantic connections. Campbell draws on the regiment’s rich archival legacy—including the private papers of its first three colonels-in-chief and of mercenary field officers—to describe more fully than Volume 22 in the Campaigns and previous accounts the lives these soldiers led in the context of their times.

On Wellington to n A Critique of Waterloo By Carl von Clausewitz Translated, edited, and annotated by Peter Hofschröer The Battle of Waterloo has been studied and dissected so extensively that one might assume little more on the subject could be discovered. Now historian Peter Hofschröer brings forward a long-repressed commentary written by Carl von Clausewitz, the author of On War.

Clausewitz, the Western world’s most renowned military theorist, participated in the Waterloo campaign as a senior staff officer in the Prussian army. His appraisal, offered here in an up-to-date and readable translation, criticized the Duke of Wellington’s actions. Lord Liverpool sent his translation of the manuscript to Wellington, who pronounced it a “lying work.” The translated commentary was quickly buried in

Carl von Clausewitz (1780–1831) was a Prussian soldier and a military theorist. His book On War is to this day essential reading for military strategists.

All for the King’s Shilling The British Soldier under Wellington, 1808–1814 s S hilli ng oss A ll fo r th e K i ng’ C By Edward J. Coss

“A revelation, a keystone reinterpretation of the British soldier of the Napoleonic Wars.”—John Lynn, author of The Bayonets of the Republic: Motivation and Tactics in the Army of Revolutionary France, 1791–94

The British troops who fought so successfully under the Duke of Wellington during his Peninsular Campaign against Napoleon have long been branded by the duke’s own words—“scum of the earth”—and assumed to have been society’s ne’er-do- wells or criminals who enlisted to escape justice. Now Edward J. Coss shows to the contrary that most of these redcoats were respectable laborers and tradesmen and that it was mainly their working-class status that prompted the duke’s derision.

Civil War Arkansas, 1863 The Battle for a State By Mark K. Christ The Arkansas River Valley is one of the most fertile regions in the South. During the Civil War, the river also served as a vital artery for moving troops and supplies. In 1863 the battle to wrest control of the valley was, in effect, a battle for the state itself. In spite of its importance, however, this campaign is often overshadowed by the siege of Vicksburg. Now Mark K. Christ offers the first detailed military assessment of parallel events in Arkansas, describing their consequences for both Union and Confederate powers.

Christ analyzes the campaign from military and political perspectives to show how events in 1863 affected the war on a larger scale. His lively narrative incorporates eyewitness accounts to tell how new Union strategy in the Trans-Mississippi theater enabled the capture of Little Rock, taking the state out of Confederate control for the rest of the war.

Two-time governor of Alta California and prominent businessman after the U.S. annexation, Pío de Jesus Pico was a politically savvy Californio who thrived in both the Mexican and the American periods.

So Rugged and Mountainous Blazing the Trails to Oregon and California, 1812–1848

By Will Bagley ous The story of America’s westward migration is a powerful blend of fact and fable. Over the course of three decades, almost a million eager fortune-hunters, pioneers, and visionaries transformed the face of a continent—and displaced its previous inhabitants. The people who made the long and perilous journey over the Oregon and California trails drove this swift and astonishing change. In this magisterial volume, Will Bagley tells why and how this massive emigration began.

While many previous authors have told parts of this story, Bagley has recast it in its entirety for modern readers. Drawing on research he conducted for the National Park Service’s Long Distance Trails Office, he has woven a wealth of primary sources—personal letters and journals, government documents, newspaper reports, and folk accounts—into a compelling narrative that reinterprets the first years of overland migration. march $45.00s Cloth 978-0-8061-4103-9 Illustrated with photographs and historical maps, So Rugged and Mountainous is $150.00s Arthur h. clark Special Edition the first of a projected four-volume history,Overland West: The Story of the Oregon 978-0-87062-381-3 and California Trails.

arm e nt journeyman gunfighter every bit as much as those whose names have become legend. e d Yet his story has eluded researchers and yarn-spinners alike—until now.

Two prominent western historians have teamed up to tell the story of Ben Daniels’s rise from outlaw and convict to presidential protégé and high-ranking officer of the law. Tracing his life from jailhouse to White House, from Dodge City to San Juan Hill, Robert DeArment and Jack DeMattos present a full-length biography of Daniels, the most controversial of Teddy Roosevelt’s “White House Gunfighters.”

Deadly Dozen, Volume 3 Forgotten Gunfighters of the Old West By Robert K. DeArment For every Wild Bill Hickok or Billy the Kid, there was another western gunfighter just as deadly but not as well known. Robert K. DeArment has earned a reputation as the premier researcher of unknown gunfighters, and here he offers twelve more portraits of men who weren’t glorified in legend but were just as notorious in their day.

Those who think they already know all about Old West gunfighters will be amazed at this new collection. Here are men like Porter Stockton, the Texas terror who bragged that he had killed eighteen men, and Jim Levy, who killed a man for disparaging his Irish blood, though he was also the only known Jewish gunfighter.

These stories span eight decades, from the gold rushes of the 1850s to the 1920s. Telling of gunmen such as Jim Masterson, the brother of Bat Masterson, or the real Whispering Smith—the man behind the fictionalized persona—whose career spanned four decades, DeArment conscientiously separates fact from fiction to reconstruct march lives all the more amazing for having remained unknown for so long. $29.95s Cloth 978-0-8061-4076-6 408 pages, 5.5 x 8.5 The product of iron-clad research, this newest Deadly Dozen delivers the goods for 18 B&W Illus. gunfighter buffs in search of something different.

A new look at how democratic values and civic republicanism shaped South Dakota political culture ai r i e R publi c Pr auck L Prairie Republic The Political Culture of Dakota Territory, 1879–1889 By Jon K. Lauck

“Seldom is a major aspect of a historical period researched, written, and interpreted as brilliantly as Jon Lauck has done here. This very important book not only adds much to South Dakota history but also demonstrates methods and approaches that could well be used in studying other pioneer territories in the Midwest.” —Gilbert C. Fite, author of The Farmers’ Frontier, 1865–1900

American democratic ideals, civic republicanism, public morality, and Christianity were the dominant forces at work during South Dakota’s formative decade.

What?

In our cynical age, such a claim seems either remarkably naïve or hopelessly outdated. Territorial politics in the late-nineteenth-century West is typically viewed as a closed- may door game of unprincipled opportunism or is caricatured, as in the classic film The $32.95s cloth 978-0-8061-4110-7 256 pages, 5.5 x 8.5 Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, as a drunken exercise in bombast and rascality. 12 b&w illus., 3 maps western history Now Jon K. Lauck examines anew the values we like to think were at work during the founding of our western states. Taking Dakota Territory as a laboratory for examining a formative stage of western politics, Lauck finds that settlers from New England and the Midwest brought democratic practices and republican values to the northern plains and invoked them as guiding principles in the drive for South Dakota statehood.

The wrenching tale of Chief Joseph and his followers is now legendary, but Bear’s Paw is not the entire story. In fact, nearly three hundred Nez Perces escaped the U.S. Army and fled into Canada. Beyond Bear’s Paw is the first book to explore the fate of these “nontreaty” Indians.

o The story of an overlooked but important Apache leader o c Chi e f L S hapard Chief Loco Apache Peacemaker By Bud Shapard Jlin-tay-i-tith, better known as Loco, was the only Apache leader to make a lasting peace with both Americans and Mexicans. Yet most historians have ignored his efforts, and some Chiricahua descendants have branded him as fainthearted despite his well-known valor in combat. In this engaging biography, Bud Shapard tells the story of this important but overlooked chief against the backdrop of the harrowing Apache wars and eventual removal of the tribe from its homeland to prison camps in Florida, Alabama, and Oklahoma.

Tracing the events of Loco’s long tenure as a leader of the Warm Springs Chiricahua band, Shapard tells how Loco steered his followers along a treacherous path of unforeseeable circumstances and tragic developments in the mid-to-late 1800s. While recognizing the near-impossibility of Apache-American coexistence, Loco persevered Volume 260 in The Civilization of the in his quest for peace against frustrating odds and often treacherous U.S. government American Indian Series policy.

W When it adopted a new constitution in 1969, the Seminole Nation was the first of the Five Tribes in Oklahoma to formally reorganize its government. In the face of an American legal system that sought either to destroy its nationhood or to impede its self-government, the Seminole Nation tenaciously retained its internal autonomy, cultural vitality, and economic subsistence. Here, L. Susan Work draws on her experience as a tribal attorney to present the first legal history of the twentieth- century Seminole Nation.

ak e Fr Framing the Sacred W The Indian Churches of Early Colonial Mexico By Eleanor Wake Christian churches erected in Mexico during the early colonial era represented the triumph of European conquest and religious domination. Or did they? Building on recent research that questions the “cultural” conquest of Mesoamerica, Eleanor Wake shows that colonial Mexican churches also reflected the beliefs of the indigenous communities that built them. European authorities failed to recognize that the meaning of the edifices they so admired was being challenged: pre-Columbian iconography integrated into Christian imagery, altars oriented toward indigenous sacred landmarks, and carefully recycled masonry. In Framing the Sacred, Wake examines how the art and architecture of Mexico’s religious structures reveals the indigenous people’s own decisions regarding the conversion program and their accommodation of the Christian message.

april As Wake shows, native peoples selected aspects of the invading culture to secure their $65.00s Cloth 978-0-8061-4033-9 own culture’s survival. In focusing on anomalies present in indigenous art and their 368 pages, 8 x 10 238 B&W Illus., 26 color Photos, 1 Map relationship to orthodox Christian iconography, she draws on a wide geographical latin america sampling across various forms of Indian artistic expression, including religious sculpture and painting, innovative architectural detail, cartography, and devotional poetry. She also offers a detailed analysis of documented native ritual practices that— she argues—assist in the interpretation of the imagery.

With more than 200 illustrations, including 24 in color, Framing the Sacred is the most extensive study to date of the indigenous aspects of these churches and fosters a more complete understanding of Christianity’s influence on Mexican peoples.

In their efforts to convert indigenous peoples, Franciscan friars brought the Spanish Inquisition to early-sixteenth-century Mexico. Patricia Lopes Don now investigates these trials to offer an inside look at this brief but consequential episode of Spanish methods of colonization, providing a fresh interpretation of an early period that has remained too long understudied.

Drawing on previously underutilized records of Inquisition proceedings, Don ex- amines four of the most important trials of native leaders to uncover the Franciscans’ motivations for using the Inquisition and the indigenous response to it. She focuses on the consecutive impact of four trials—against nahualli Martín Ocelotl, an influential native priest; Andrés Mixcoatl, an advocate of open resistance tothe april Franciscans; Miguel Pochtecatl Tlaylotla, a guardian of native religious artifacts; and $34.95s Cloth 978-0-8061-4049-0 280 pages, 6 x 9 Don Carlos of Texcoco, a native chief burned at the stake for heresy.

After a youthful stint as a newspaper illustrator for art the Toronto Star, he studied in New York with Dean Cornwell and Frank Vincent DuMond of the famed Art Students League.

After earning a place among renowned illustrators, Lougheed joined the Cowboy Artists of America and helped found the National Academy of Western Art. Both honored him with multiple awards. He painted prolifically abroad, bringing back scores of fresh oils, watercolors, and sketches from France and England. Wherever he traveled—the Virgin Islands, Hawaii, Alaska, or the American Southwest—he painted incessantly. He mentored many young artists, schooling them in his “creative truth,” which included the necessity of creating from life rather than photographs. Wherever he went, he found horses, and he honored them through his art.

Author Don Hedgpeth makes clear why “contemporary western art owes a major debt of gratitude to Bob Lougheed.” This book takes a long stride toward repaying that debt and introduces a remarkable artist to any who have not yet had the pleasure.

Taking in twenty premodern societies on five continents—with particular emphasis on ancient Greece and Rome and the Byzantine Empire—he traces connections to modern sporting attitudes, practices, and institutions as he describes how athletics figured in cultural arenas that extended beyond physical prowess to ritual, social status, military associations, and politics.

Murder of a Landscape The California Farmer-Smelter War, 1897–1916

M u r d er of a L B loom By Khaled J. Bloom Between 1896 and 1919, air pollution from large-scale copper smelting in northern California’s Shasta County severely damaged crops and timber in a 1,000-square-mile region, completely devastating a core area of 200 square miles. The poisons from these smelters created the nation’s largest man-made desert—a shocking contrast to the beauty of the surrounding Cascades and Trinity Alps.

This book traces the development of that environmental catastrophe and explains a long, complex, and rancorous struggle that involved several corporations, hundreds of farmers and ranchers, and all levels of government. In tackling this long-neglected story—one hardly known within or beyond California—Khaled J. Bloom takes readers back to the region of that time and shows how the copper industry posed serious environmental threats from the beginning. He tells of hardscrabble settlers volume 24 in the western lands and and gentleman farmers who rose up repeatedly in unsuccessful efforts to either clean waters series up or shut down the smelters.

The Nauvoo Legion in Illinois A History of the Mormon Militia, 1841–1846

By Richard E. Bennett, Susan Easton Black, and Donald Q. Cannon oo Leg io n i I lli When the Mormons established their theocratic city of Nauvoo on the banks of the Mississippi in 1839, they made self-defense a priority, having encountered persecution, violence, and forcible expulsion elsewhere. Organized under Illinois law, the Nauvoo Legion was a city militia made up primarily of Latter-day Saints. This comprehensive

An American construct in design, appearance, and function, the Nauvoo Legion quickly became one of America’s largest—and most feared—militias. The authors describe its origins, daily activities, and general conduct, including parades, sham battles, uniforms, and military operations. And they also present a new interpretation of the Legion’s essential purpose and character. Drawing upon overlooked state militia records and recently discovered archival material, they identify the thousands may of citizen soldiers who served. $39.95s Cloth 978-0-87062-382-0 440 Pages, 6.125 x 9.25 Despite the nominal authority of the Illinois governor, the Nauvoo Legion was led by 25 B&W Illus., 5 tables religion/western history Mormon Prophet Joseph Smith.

Gettysburg to Great Salt Lake

salkt lak gre at e to sbu rg George R. Maxwell, Civil War Hero and Federal Marshal among the Mormons By John Gary Maxwell

M a x w e ll ge tt y Following distinguished Civil War service that took one of his legs and rendered an arm useless, General George R. Maxwell was sent to Utah Territory and charged— first as Register of Land, then as U.S. marshal—with bringing the Mormons into compliance with federal law. John Gary Maxwell’s biography of General Maxwell (no relation) both celebrates an unsung war hero and presents the history of the longest episode of civil disobedience in U.S. history from the point of view of this young, non-Mormon who lived through it.

With the onset of the Civil War, Maxwell volunteered for the First Michigan Cavalry and fought in most of the war’s major battles in Virginia and at Gettysburg. In his subsequent service, Maxwell waged a different war as he battled the Mormon church’s april leadership over ownership of land, water, and timber. In the courts, in election $39.95s Cloth 978-0-87062-388-2 outcomes, and in the legislature, Maxwell fought the Mormons’ affirmation that 384 pages, 6.125 x 9.25 19 b&w illus. God’s law was superior to federal law. And as marshal, he was the first to properly biography/civil war conduct a federal trial in the Utah Territory, when John D. Lee was tried for the massacre of 120 Arkansas emigrants at Mountain Meadows.

Gettysburg to Great Salt Lake recognizes Maxwell as both a bona fide Civil War hero and an unappreciated shaper of Utah history. His biography reveals this period through the eyes of a soldier and civil servant who embodied federal authority in Utah during its turbulent post–Civil War years.

Hancock’s War a r Conflict on the Southern Plains By William Y. Chalfant When General Winfield Scott Hancock led a military expedition across Kansas, Colorado, and Nebraska in 1867, his purpose was a show of force that would curtail Indian raiding sparked by the Sand Creek massacre of 1864. But the havoc he and his troops wrought on the plains served only to further incite the tribes and inflame passions on both sides, disrupting U.S.-Indian relations for more than a decade.

William Y. Chalfant has devoted years of research to produce a detailed narrative covering the entire scope of Hancock’s “Expedition for the Plains.” This first thorough scholarly history of the ill-conceived expedition offers an unequivocal evaluation of military strategies and a culturally sensitive interpretation of Indian motivations and reactions.

Chalfant explores the vastly different ways of life that separated the Cheyennes and volume 28 in the frontier military series U.S. policymakers, and argues that neither side was willing or able to understand the needs of the other. He shows how Hancock’s efforts were counterproductive, brought april untold misery to Indians and whites alike, and led to the wars of 1868. $59.95s Cloth 978-0-87062-371-4 $125.00s Special Edition 978-0-87062-374-5 One of the most significant Indian campaigns in American history, Hancock’s War is 296 pages, 6.125 x 9.25 35 B&W Illus., 4 Maps in many ways a microcosm of all the wars between Indians and whites on the high military history plains.

W When Horace Plunkett left Britain for the American West in 1879, seeking relief for lung problems, he launched a ranching career in Wyoming that influenced the cattle industry and altered the course of his own life. Previous biographers have studied his career in British politics and his involvement in the agricultural cooperative movement. Lawrence M. Woods now offers a detailed look at Plunkett’s American years.

This is the first book to portray Plunkett as a major figure in the western-range cattle industry, unearthing new evidence that reveals how he mastered the microeconomics of ranching. Woods brings his own business and legal acumen to the narrative to describe how, even as other Britons failed to find fortune in the West, Plunkett continually pursued new business arrangements while navigating the thickets of American law.

The 1865 Powder River Indian Expedition a r By David E. Wagner The summer of 1865 marked the transition from the Civil War to Indian war on the western plains. With the rest of the country’s attention still focused on the East, the U.S. Army began an often forgotten campaign against the Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapaho. Led by Gen. Patrick Connor, the Powder River Indian Expedition into Wyoming sought to punish tribes for raids earlier that year. Patrick Connor’s War describes the troops’ movement into hostile territory while struggling with bad weather, supply shortages, and communication problems.

David E. Wagner’s carefully assembled account carries readers along the trail of Connor’s men and allows soldiers to give firsthand impressions of the land and campaign.

Thomas Gilcrease Contributions by Randy Ramer, Carole Klein, Kimberly Roblin, Gary Moore, Anne Morand, April Miller, and Eric Singleton The story of Thomas Gilcrease (1890–1962) is the story of the world’s first oil boom, of a state in its formative years, of marriages and fortunes made and lost—but most lastingly it is the story of how the Gilcrease collection came to exist, and how Gilcrease Museum became an unparalleled treasure house now owned by the citizens of Tulsa, Oklahoma. With over 500,000 artifacts, pieces of art, and archival gems, it is a testament to one man’s dedication and vision. In Thomas Gilcrease, the man behind that museum is revealed.

Born in 1890, Thomas Gilcrease came of age at roughly the same time that Indian Territory became the forty-sixth state of the Union, in 1907. As a citizen of the Creek Nation, he received a 160-acre allotment near Kiefer—land located, as it turned out, within the famous Glenn Pool oil field.

In 1931 he told his art/biography friend Robert Humber of his decision: he would establish the Gilcrease Foundation, which would fund a museum, a library, and a home for underprivileged children.

The ten essays in this volume, illustrated with more than 100 color images and rarely seen historical photographs, tell the story of one man’s life and legacy. The contributors include present and former staff of the Gilcrease Museum and regular contributors to its journal. “Every man must leave a track,” Gilcrease once said, “and it might as well be a good one.” oupress.com · 800-627-7377 47 statburk e a r t of th oklahoma e c apitol Highlights the work of contemporary Oklahoma artists

Charles Banks Wilson Contributions by Randy Ramer, Carole Klein, Anne Morand, and Carol Haralson Charles Banks Wilson is one of Oklahoma’s most beloved and accomplished artists. Known for his portraits and murals honoring great Oklahomans and Oklahoma history, and for his career-spanning series of portraits of Native Americans, his place in the history of American art is assured. This stunning book, featuring nearly two hundred reproductions of his works, celebrates both his life story and his artistic legacy.

As demonstrated in this book, Wilson’s work is characterized both by technical expertise and aesthetic genius. But his place in the hearts of Americans and in the company of such great regionalists as Thomas Hart Benton is secured by his eye for the everyday truths of humbler subjects: for example, boys leaping into a swimming hole or cooks stirring the bean pot at a powwow. His work ranges widely across media; he is equally skilled in pencil, ink, watercolor, and oil, and he is a master lithographer. Distributed for the Gilcrease Museum– University of Tulsa The contributors to this book reveal Wilson’s devotion to American heartland life through detailed analysis of his works, many from the Gilcrease Collection, created january $19.95s ORIGINAL PAPERBACK over nearly seven decades of the artist’s life.
