Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Fights and Fighters With intervals devoted to other duties, I have been over a year and a half engaged in this congenial task. I have written literally hundreds of letters, to learn, or to verify, a fact, an incident, or a conclusion. It is interesting to call attention to the fact that information has been freely and generously given to me from every source whence I have asked it save three, one of which is noted in the appendix. It is my hope to continue this series Of books until I have covered all the wars that have been fought upon the American Continent since Columbus's day.

Download or read book Northwestern Fights and Fighters Classic Reprint written by Cyrus Townsend Brady and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Northwestern Fights and Fighters T will be noticed that this book differs from others of the american fights and fighters series, and especially its immediate predecessor, Indian Fights and Fighters, in that I am not the author of all or most of it. In response to a request for contributions from participants in the Modoc and Nez Perc wars, numerous papers were sub mitred, all of such high value, not only from an historic but from a literary point of View as well, that I had not the presumption to rewrite them myself not even the proverbial assurance of the historian would warrant that. Therefore, I have contented myself with writing a general and comprehensive account of each of the two wars considered, leaving to the actors themselves the telling in full of the detailed story of the splendid achieve ments in which they were making history. I can affirm, therefore, that never before has there been included in a single volume such a remarkable and interesting col lection of personal experiences in our Indian Wars as in this book. And as I admire the doers of the deeds so, also, do I admire the tellers of the tales. Their modesty, their restraint, their habit of relating adventures which stir the blood and thrill the soul as a mere matter of course.

Download or read book India s Fighters written by Saint Nihal Singh and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from India's Fighters: Their Mettle, History and Services to Britain This little volume aims at giving a bird's-eye view of India's fighting clans - their origin, their deeds of dash and daring, their past services to Britain, and their part in the Armies of British India and of the Rajas. It makes no pretensions to being an exhaustive study of the organisation of the armies of India, or a complete history of their growth and accomplishments. Apart from the limitations of space and time at my disposal, my design has not been to essay such tasks. On the contrary, I have endeavoured to give a general idea of the extent and quality of Hindostan's military resources, and thereby supply a lack which has impressed many as unfortunate in the interests of the British Empire, the Oriental Dependency, and the world at large. The account I supply here is a plain, unvarnished tale, free from hyperbole. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Boys' Book of Frontier Fighters These are stories Of bravery and Of pluck amidst great Odds. In many of the stories victory was won by the aid of powder, ball and steel, used manfully. In others it was won by sheer nerve and wit alone - for a good fighter fights with his heart and head as fully as with his hands. Americans have always been great fighters, when called upon to fight in self-defense. They never quit until they are killed or triumphant; and although many may be killed, those they leave press forward again. In France the Americans never gave up an inch. We Americans of to-day, looking back, may be proud not only of the part played by our blood in the World War, but likewise Of the part it played in the days when, rifle in hand, we were hewing the peace trail in our own country.

This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from General Crook and the Fighting Apaches IT should not be expected that an Indian who has lived as a barbarian all his life will become an angel the moment he comes on a reservation and promises to behave himself, or that he has that strict sense of honor which a person should have who has had the advantage of civilization all his life, and the benefit of a moral training and character which has been transmitted to him through a long line Of ancestors. It requires constant watching and knowledge of their character to keep them from going wrong. They are children in ignorance, not in innocence. I do not wish to be understood as in the least palliating their crimes, but I wish to say a word to stem the torrent of invective and abuse which has almost universally been indulged in against the Whole Apache race. Greed and avarice on the part of the whites - in other words, the almighty dollar - is at the bottom of nine-tenths.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Depredations in Texas: Reliable Account of Battles, Wars, Adventures, Forays, Murders, Massacres, Etc., Together With Biographical Sketches of Many of the Most Noted Indian Fighters and Frontiersmen of Texas Of the book entitled The Life and Adventures of Big Foot Wallace, I have been permitted to make some extracts from the same which I believed would be of interest to the reader. The present generation can at best have but a faint idea of the hardships, exposures and perils to which the pioneers of Texas were subjected. For ten years they con tended with the Mexican nation on the west and roving bands of fierce savages on the north, when invasion of the frontier might be expected at any time. After annexation, the United States government afforded but poor protection against the Indians, and murders continued until quite re cently. As one of the pioneers, I felt impelled to prepare and publish for the benefit of another generation this vol ume, which shows something of the dangers and difficulties under which the peace that our people now enjoy has been secured.
