  • One of the soldiers of Stand Watie, recalled: "... for Watie you could even go into the jaws of death. He gave a command and then himself rushed forward, and we rushed to the battle yelling for him. We fought like tigers, each of us against three enemies. Apparently, Watie is cherished by spirits - it was all against us.

  • "What stupid people they are! They can do nothing and their continued defeats should convince them of it. They have lost six great battles; we have captured six hundred and eight cannon, nearly one hundred thousand stands of arms, made twenty thousand prisoners, have the greatest portion of their country and are fast advancing on their Capital which must be ours,—yet they refuse to treat!"-Kirby Smith, 1847, on continuing Mexican resistance.

    ..Oh..the irony..

  • Have you seen The History Channels

    Indain Warriors: The untold story of the civil war?

  • This story is easy to ready, and understand. While the story starts off slow, by the end of the book, I wanted to know what happens next. Those that grew up in the 40's and 50's in the midwest or in the country or on a reservation; For all readers both young an silver haired will be able to identify with the main character Stand Watie. All the characters where real people.

  • Very entertaining and historical novel.
