This reference provides information on getting to, and getting the most from, the places where warfare between Indians and Europeans took place. Each entry discusses how to find the site, tours, museums, and resources for further study. There is also a chronological list of battles.
From the Seminole Wars to the Little Big Horn, the history of America's native peoples and their contacts with those seeking to settle or claim a new land has often been marked by violence. The sites of these conflicts, unlike many sites related to the American revolution and the War Between the States, are often difficult to locate, and information on these battles is frequently sketchy or unclear. This reference provides information on getting to, and getting the most from, the places, both major and minor, where warfare between Indians and Europeans took place. The arrangement is by state, with sections for Canada and Mexico. Each entry has information about how to find the site, tours, museums, and resources for further study. In addition, there is a chronological list of battles and other encounters between Indians and non-Indians, including dates, location in the text, and the larger conflict of which each battle was a part. There is an index of battle locations and an index of prominent people involved. The bibliography and site listings are cross-referenced for further research.
