Comanches: The History of a People - Softcover

"For a complete history of the Comanches, this book probably has no equal." -Dee Brown, author of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee

"This is a very good book. Like virtually all good books about the American Indian, it tells a tragic story, but unlike many of them, it tells it well. The author has mastered an extensive and complex subject: he is flexible, well-organized, and sensitive." -Larry McMurtry

"Fehrenbach is a highly interpretive and original writer, whose work rests on solid scholarship. His book ranges grandly across the disciplines from folklore to anthropology to history." -Southwestern Historical Quarterly

Describes the culture and history of the Comanches, one of the most powerful Native American tribes, from their prehistoric beginnings through their gradual disintegration as an independent nation. Reprint. 10,000 first printing.
