Campaigning With Crook by Captain Charles King offers a first-hand account of the military campaigns led by General George Crook during the Indian Wars of the late 19th century. Written by King, who served under Crook, this detailed narrative provides unique insights into the strategies, challenges, and experiences of the U.S. Army as they engaged with Native American tribes. The book captures the rugged conditions of frontier warfare and highlights the complex relationships between soldiers, Native Americans, and the western territories. Rich in historical detail and personal observation, this work is a valuable resource for those interested in military history and the American West.
The book is in Very Good condition for its age, with very minor page toning consistent with vintage books. A small vintage sticker from a long-gone bookseller adds a unique touch of history to the inside cover. The cover shows minimal wear, and the pages are clean and free of markings, with the binding remaining tight and secure. A well-preserved piece of historical literature.
Please Note: Campaigning With Crook was written in the late 19th century, first published in 1890, and reflects the language, perspectives, and attitudes of its time, particularly toward Native Americans. Readers should be aware that the book may contain terms and portrayals that are considered racially insensitive or offensive by modern standards. These views are a product of the historical context in which the book was written and do not align with contemporary understandings of Indigenous cultures and histories. This book remains a valuable historical document but should be read with an awareness of the biases inherent in its era.
