A classic account of the Indian Wars of the great American North
West
The author of this book, William Thompson, was a true pioneer and
American frontiersman. He travelled westward by covered wagon with
his family experiencing the wild and lawless country he would be
destined to help tame at first hand. In keeping with many of his
contemporaries in all the new territories he tried his hand at
several ways of making his living, but, in common with other men on
the edges of civilisation, he was constantly called upon to serve
with volunteer units often created quickly and in emergencies to
combat uprisings, incursions, raids and outrages against settlers
by the indigenous native peoples including the Snake and Modoc
Indian tribes among others. The author provides a riveting account
of his personal participation in several Indian campaigns in
particular the 'Lava Beds Campaign' against Captain Jack and his
band of renegade Modocs.
