New: Treaty of 1868

This book consists of primary source documents leading up to the treaty of 1868. The painful history unfolds through white men's eyes, taken from some previously unpublished firsthand accounts. The collection chronicles the Fearing Time (Kit Carson's scorched earth campaign), and contains military and eyewitness accounts of the Long Walk, forced internment at Fort Sumner, and the Journey Home. Also included are photos of the author's journey along the main route of the Long Walk.
