This book was released on 1998-08-10 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive study is the first scholarly account explaining how the British and Indian armies adapted to the peculiar demands of fighting an irregular tribal opponent in the mountainous no-man's-land between India and Afghanistan. It does so by discussing how a tactical doctrine of frontier fighting was developed and 'passed on' to succeeding generations of soldiers. As this book conclusively demonstrates this form of colonial warfare always exerted a powerful influence on the organisation, equipment, training and ethos of the Army in India.

Book excerpt: During the course of history, conflicts known as the American Indian Wars, Frontier Wars, First Nations Wars, or the Indian Wars took place when European governments, colonies, American and Canadian settlers engaged in warfare with various American Indian and First Nation tribes. These battles occurred across North America, spanning from the 17th century to the early 20th century, with diverse causes ranging from land usage disputes to retaliatory cycles of violence. This was not uncommon. After 1780, armed confrontations between settlers and different Indian or First Nation tribes intensified in extent, duration, and intensity. A significant turning point came during the War of 1812, where large Indian alliances from the Midwest and South fought against the United States and suffered defeats. Over time, treaties between the federal government and certain tribes helped reduce hostilities between settlers and the native population. The passage of the Indian Removal Act in 1830 authorized the expulsion of Indians living east of the Mississippi River to Indian Territory in the western United States, particularly in what would become Oklahoma. This removal policy continued as American settlers expanded their territory, relocating Indian tribes to designated Indian reserves in the West.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian Frontier War: Being an Account of the Mohmund and Tirah Expeditions 1897 From the way the public Press has called for explanation upon certain points connected with the campaign, it has appeared to me that the public barely appreciate what was asked of their army when it was sent to invade Afridi and Orakzai Tirah. Having been present at the Campaign, I would that my readers should start from as fair a standpoint as possible, for I feel sure that, after really grasping the circumstances of the campaign, they will appreciate the reasons why I have abstained from criticism. Be it understood that casualties must occur, and in a mountainous country like the Afridi the casualties must be in proportion to the efficiency of the transport. The Government of India chose to equip the force with an inefficient transport, and the General Officers could only do their best with what was served out to them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Frontier Warfare It has been decided bv the editor of this series that this book shall deal onlv with Indian Frontier War fare in so far as it is exemplified by campaigns and expeditious which have taken place during the last twenty years. This decision is made on the grounds that though valuable lessons have been and can be drawn from ancient wars, yet that equally useful and equally appropriate lessons are to be found nearer our own times, and that a study of these is especially essential as regards Indian Frontier Warfare, since the invention of the breechloader and the extensive intro duction of railways have so materially altered the conditions under which Indian campaigns are under.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1984, Robert Utley's The Indian Frontier of the American West, 1846-1890, is considered a classic for both students and scholars. For this revision, Utley includes scholarship and research that has become available in recent years. What they said about the first edition: "[The Indian Frontier of the American West, 1846-1890] provides an excellent synthesis of Indian-white relations in the trans-Mississippi West during the last half-century of the frontier period."--Journal of American History "The Indian Frontier of the American West combines good writing, solid research, and penetrating interpretations. The result is a fresh and welcome study that departs from the soldier-chases-Indian approach that is all too typical of other books on the topic."--Minnesota History "[Robert M. Utley] has carefully eschewed sensationalism and glib oversimplification in favor of critical appraisal, and his firm command of some of the best published research of others provides a solid foundation for his basic argument that Indian hostility in the half century following the Mexican War was directed less at the white man per se than at the hated reservation system itself."--Pacific Historical Review Choice Magazine Outstanding Selection
