MUHAMMAD
Islam’s First Great General
By Richard A. Gabriel
An examination of Muhammad’s life as a military leader
That Muhammad succeeded as a prophet is undeniable; a prominent military
historian now suggests that he might not have done so had he not also been a
great soldier.
Best known as the founder of a major religion, Muhammad was also Islam’s
first great general. While there have been numerous accounts of Muhammad the
Prophet, this is the first military biography of the man.
In Muhammad: Islam’s First Great General, Richard A. Gabriel shows us a war-
rior never before seen in antiquity—a leader of an all-new religious movement
who in a single decade fought eight major battles, led eighteen raids, and planned
thirty-eight other military operations. Gabriel’s study portrays Muhammad as a
revolutionary who introduced military innovations that transformed armies and
warfare throughout the Arab world.
Gabriel analyzes the environment in which Muhammad lived and the religion
he inspired as they relate to his military achievements. Gabriel explains how
Muhammad changed the social composition of Arab armies by replacing tradi-
tional ways of fighting with a new command structure.
Muhammad’s transformation of Arab warfare enabled his successors to establish

THREE PLAYS
The Indolent Boys, Children of the Sun, and The Moon
in Two Windows
By N. Scott Momaday
Theatrical works celebrating Kiowa history and culture
“N. Scott Momaday’s theatrical writing . . . contributes to the stage a unique dra-
matic voice whose resonance echoes in our very souls.”—M. Z. Ribalow, play-
wright and artistic director of New River Dramatists
Long a leading figure in American literature, N. Scott Momaday is perhaps best
known for his Pulitzer Prize–winning House Made of Dawn and his celebration
of his Kiowa ancestry, The Way to Rainy Mountain. Momaday has also made his
mark in theater through two plays and a screenplay. Published here for the first
time, they display his signature talent for interweaving oral and literary traditions.
The Indolent Boys recounts the 1891 tragedy of runaways from the Kiowa Board-
ing School who froze to death while trying to return to their families. The play
explores the consequences, for Indian students and their white teachers, of the
federal program to “kill the Indian and save the Man.” A joyous counterpoint to
this tragedy, Children of the Sun is a short children’s play that explains the people’s
relationship to the sun. The Moon in Two Windows, a screenplay set in the early
1900s, centers on the children of defeated Indian tribes, who are forced into assimi-
lation at Carlisle, Pennsylvania, where the U.S. government established the first off-
reservation boarding school.
Belonging with the best of Momaday’s classic writing, these plays are works of a
mature craftsman that preserve the mythic and cultural tradition of unique tribal
communities in the face of an increasingly homogeneous society.

VOICES FROM THE HEARTLAND

Edited by Carolyn Anne Taylor, Emily Dial-Driver,
Carole Burrage, and Sally Emmons-Featherston
A thought-provoking collection of essays on life and living
Voices from the Heartland is a celebration of women’s contributions to Okla-
homa’s recent past. It records defining moments in women’s lives—whether
surviving the Oklahoma City bombing or surviving abuse—and represents a wide
range of professions, lifestyles, and backgrounds to show how extraordinary lives
have grown from the seeds of ordinary girlhoods.
From former Cherokee principal chief Wilma Mankiller, First Lady Kim Henry,
novelist Billie Letts, and prima ballerina Maria Tallchief, to OU basketball coach
Sherri Coale, the authors share their personal reflections on finding balance as
they look back on defining moments in their lives, mull over what they wish they
had learned sooner, and convey the wisdom they’ve unearthed on their journeys
thus far.
Touching on topics from adultery to left-handedness, from losing children to
losing perspective, these essays speak from the heart to reveal what it means to
be an American woman today. Readers will meet activists and writers, advocates
and artists—some of whom are household names, while others work outside the
public eye.
Voices from the Heartland speaks to readers all across America and demonstrates
that women in Oklahoma represent the heart of us all.

DASCHLE VS. THUNE

Anatomy of a High-Plains Senate Race
By Jon K. Lauck
The story behind the unseating of a Senate majority leader
“Jon Lauck’s account of one of the hardest-fought elections in the 2004 campaign
should be must reading for Democrats as well as Republicans.”—Michael Barone,
Senior Writer, U.S. News & World Report
The race between Tom Daschle and John Thune in South Dakota was widely
acknowledged as “the other big race of 2004.” Second in prominence only to the
presidential race, the Daschle-Thune contest pitted the rival political ideologies
that have animated American politics since the 1960s. In a sign of the ongoing
strength of political conservatism, Daschle became the first Senate leader in fifty
years to lose a re-election bid.
Historian Jon K. Lauck, a South Dakotan who was an insider during that heated
campaign, now offers a multilayered examination of this hard-fought and symbol-
ically charged race. Blending historical narrative, political analysis, and personal
reflection, he offers a close-up view of the issues that divide the nation—a case
study of the continuing clash between liberalism and conservatism that has played
out for more than a generation in U.S. politics.
Daschle vs. Thune moves beyond the nitty-gritty of public policy to deftly show
how the recent past continues to shape the ongoing political battles that animate
pundits and bloggers. It is a compelling story told by a writer who knows both
his home ground and how it fits into the wider U.S. context.
Jon K. Lauck is Senior Advisor to U.S. Senator John Thune and author of American
Agriculture and the Problem of Monopoly: The Political Economy of Grain Belt
Farming, 1953–1980. He resides in Sioux Falls.

BOOKS ON TRIAL
Red Scare in the Heartland
By Shirley A. Wiegand and Wayne A. Wiegand
How civil liberties triumphed over national insecurity
Between the two major red scares of the twentieth century, a police raid on a
Communist Party bookstore in Oklahoma City marked an important lesson in
the history of American freedom.
In a raid on the Progressive Bookstore in 1940, local officials seized thousands
of books and pamphlets and arrested twenty customers and proprietors. All were
detained incommunicado and many were held for months on unreasonably high
bail. Four were tried for violating Oklahoma’s “criminal syndicalism” law, and
their convictions and ten-year sentences caused a nationwide furor. After protests
from labor unions, churches, publishers, academics, librarians, the American Civil
Liberties Union, members of the literary world, and prominent individuals rang-
ing from Woody Guthrie to Eleanor Roosevelt, the convictions were overturned
on appeal.
Shirley A. Wiegand and Wayne A. Wiegand share the compelling story of this
important case for the first time. They reveal how state power—with support
from local media and businesses—was used to trample individuals’ civil rights
during an era in which citizens were gripped by fear of foreign subversion.
Richly detailed and colorfully told, Books on Trial is a sobering story of innocent
people swept up in the hysteria of their times. It marks a fascinating and unnerv-
ing chapter in the history of Oklahoma and of the First Amendment. In today’s
climate of shadowy foreign threats—also full of unease about the way govern-
ment curtails freedom in the name of protecting its citizens—the past speaks to
the present.
Shirley A. Wiegand is Professor of Law at Marquette University, Milwaukee,
Wisconsin. Wayne A. Wiegand is the F. William Summers Professor of Library
and Information Studies and Professor of American Studies at Florida State Uni-
versity, Tallahassee, Florida.

VERNE SANKEY
America’s First Public Enemy
By Timothy W. Bjorkman
A fast-paced adventure of a 1930s kidnapper
In late January of 1934, as authorities delivered John Dillinger to an Indiana jail,
the United States Justice Department announced, for the first time, that the Federal
Bureau of Investigation had just captured America’s Public Enemy No. 1. It was not
Dillinger the Justice Department was referring to, but an affable railroader turned
outlaw, Verne Sankey. Now Timothy W. Bjorkman has written the first full-length
biography of this overlooked criminal, relating how a South Dakota family man
became a bootlegger, a bank robber, and eventually, a kidnapper whose deeds her-
alded a nationwide crime spree.
In the early days of Prohibition, Sankey, then a locomotive engineer, was drawn
to the easy money he could make bootlegging. When crime syndicates monopo-
lized the trade and Prohibition’s end was in sight, he turned to the occasional
bank robbery and eventually to a ransom scheme. In tracing the life of San-
key—and his demure wife, Fern—Bjorkman depicts a good-natured man, friendly
neighbor, and gentleman rumrunner catering to the banker and broker trade. He
also explores Sankey’s motivations, his identification as America’s first Public
Enemy, and his ultimate descent into oblivion.

THE BILLY THE KID READER

By Frederick Nolan
More than a century’s worth of essential writing on America’s most famous outlaw
“Once again Fred Nolan has validated his distinction as the world’s leading
authority on Billy the Kid. No one knows more.”—Robert M. Utley, author of
Billy the Kid: A Short and Violent Life
Despite the countless books and films devoted to him, Billy the Kid remains
one of the most elusive figures of the Old West. Now, award-winning western
historian Frederick Nolan has scoured the published literature to offer this well-
rounded compendium on the life and times of William H. Bonney.
The Billy the Kid Reader contains some of the best articles on the Kid—including
gems no longer in print. From the first dime novel that appeared shortly after his
death to the research of today’s historians, these writings bring Bonney’s life into
sharp focus.
Nolan highlights two distinct schools of Billy the Kid studies: works of popular-
izers who tended to exaggerate his historical role, and the findings of grassroots
researchers who have reassessed our perceptions of the Kid. Dozens of illustra-
tions enhance the text, illuminating the Kid’s career and notoriety.
This collection shows that the life of William H. Bonney is not yet a closed
book—far from it. Many versions of his life remain little more than unchallenged
tradition. The Billy the Kid Reader puts that lengthy body of work in perspec-
tive and will satisfy seasoned Kid aficionados as well as first-time readers eager to
learn more about the man and the legend.
Frederick Nolan is a leading authority on outlaws and gunfighters of the Old
West. His award-winning books include The West of Billy the Kid; The Wild
West: History, Myth, and the Making of America; and The Lincoln County War:

A GREAT DAY TO FIGHT FIRE

Mann Gulch, 1949
By Mark Matthews
A story of lost youth, broken hearts, and man’s inability to conquer nature
Mann Gulch, Montana, 1949. Sixteen men ventured into hell to fight a raging
wildfire; only three came out alive.
Searing the fire into the nation’s consciousness, Norman Maclean chronicled the
Mann Gulch tragedy in his award-winning book Young Men and Fire. Still, the
silence of the victims’ families robbed Maclean’s account of an essential personal
dimension. Shifting the focus from the fire to the men who fought it, Mark Mat-
thews now provides that perspective.
Not until 1999—the fiftieth anniversary of the fire—did people begin to talk
openly about Mann Gulch. Matthews has garnered those thoughts to reveal
how devastating the fire was to the firefighters’ family members, coworkers, and
friends. In retelling the story of Mann Gulch, he draws on the testimony of the
three survivors—including never-before-published insights from the last living
member of the team—and interviews with former smoke jumpers of that era. The
result is a moment-by-moment, heart-stopping re-creation of events.
The Mann Gulch tragedy provoked the Forest Service to develop safety equip-
ment and training programs, but fighting wildfires is still a perilous job.
Matthews’ stirring account renews our respect for one of nature’s primal forces. A

BABY DOE TABOR

The Madwoman in the Cabin
By Judy Nolte Temple
Unravels the psyche of Colorado’s most adored adulteress
The story of Baby Doe Tabor has seduced America for more than a century. Long
before her body was found frozen in the Leadville shack where for decades she
had guarded the Matchless Mine, Elizabeth McCourt “Baby Doe” Tabor was the
stuff of legend. The stunning divorcée married Colorado’s wealthiest mining
magnate and became “the Silver Queen of the West.” Horace and Baby Doe
mesmerized the world with their wealth and extravagance. Blessed with two
daughters and with the Matchless Mine’s earnings of $2,000 a day, they spent
seemingly limitless riches.
But Baby Doe’s life was also a morality play. Almost overnight, the Tabors’
wealth disappeared when depression struck in 1893. Forced to shovel slag at the
mines, Horace died six years later. According to the legend, one daughter left
home never to return; the other died horribly. For thirty-five years, Baby Doe,
who was considered mad, lived in solitude high in the Colorado Rockies.
Baby Doe Tabor left a record of her madness in a set of writings she called her
“Dreams and Visions.” These were discovered after her death but never studied
in detail—until now. In Baby Doe Tabor: The Madwoman in the Cabin, author
Judy Nolte Temple retells Lizzie’s story with greater accuracy than any previous
biographer. She unpacks the mythology to uncover Lizzie’s actual experiences as
told in her fragmentary writings and correspondence. Undertaking the first close
analysis of Lizzie’s writings, Temple reveals a story more heartbreaking than the
legend and, for the first time, gives voice to the woman behind the myth.

VICTORIO
Apache Warrior and Chief
By Kathleen P. Chamberlain
A thoroughgoing portrait of the feared contemporary of Geronimo
“Carefully researched and clearly written.”—Roger L. Nichols, author of
American Indians in U.S. History
A steadfast champion of his people during the wars with encroaching Anglo-
Americans, the Apache chief Victorio deserves as much attention as his bet-
ter-known contemporaries Cochise and Geronimo. In presenting the story of
this nineteenth-century Warm Springs Apache warrior, Kathleen P. Chamberlain
expands our understanding of Victorio’s role in the Apache wars and brings him
into the center of events.
Although there is little documentation of Victorio’s life outside military records,
Chamberlain draws on ethnographic sources to surmise his childhood and ado-
lescence and to depict traditional Warm Springs Apache social, religious, and
economic life. Reconstructing Victorio’s life beyond the military conflicts that have
since come to define him, she interprets his character and actions not only as whites
viewed them but also as the logical outcome of his upbringing and worldview.
Chamberlain’s Victorio is a pragmatic leader and a profoundly spiritual man.
Caught in the absurdities of post–Civil War Indian policy, Victorio struggled with
the glaring disconnect between the U.S. government’s vision for Indians and their
own physical, psychological, and spiritual needs.
Graced with historic photos of Victorio, other Apaches, and U.S. military leaders,
this biography portrays Victorio as a leader who sought a peaceful homeland for
his people in the face of wrongheaded decisions from Washington. It is the most
nearly complete and balanced picture yet to emerge of a Native leader caught in

GALL
Lakota War Chief
By Robert W. Larson
First-ever scholarly biography of the man said to have killed Custer
Called the “Fighting Cock of the Sioux” by U.S. soldiers, Hunkpapa warrior Gall
was a great Lakota chief who, along with Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, resisted
efforts by the U.S. government to annex the Black Hills. It was Gall, enraged
by the slaughter of his family, who led the charge across Medicine Tail Ford to
attack Custer’s main forces on the other side of the Little Bighorn.
Robert W. Larson now sorts through contrasting views of Gall, to determine the
real character of this legendary Sioux. This first-ever scholarly biography also
focuses on the actions Gall took during his final years on the reservation, unravel-
ing his last fourteen years to better understand his previous forty.
Gall, Sitting Bull’s most able lieutenant, accompanied him into exile in Canada.
Once back on the reservation, though, he broke with his chief over Ghost Dance
traditionalism and instead supported Indian agent James McLaughlin’s more real-
istic agenda. Tracing Gall’s evolution from a fearless warrior to a representative
of his people, Larson shows that Gall contended with shifting political and mili-
tary conditions while remaining loyal to the interests of his tribe.
Filling many gaps in our understanding of this warrior and his relationship with
Sitting Bull, this engaging biography also offers new interpretations of the Little
Bighorn that lay to rest the contention that Gall was “Custer’s Conqueror.” Gall:
Lakota War Chief broadens our understanding of both the man and his people.

A WORKING MAN’S APOCRYPHA

Short Stories
By William Luvaas
Cutting-edge fiction that breathes life into unlikely characters
In these unforgettable stories, William Luvaas depicts the struggles of everyday
people facing situations far from the ordinary. Through tales set largely in South-
ern California’s Inland Empire, Luvaas weaves magic and absurdity around
characters caught between apocalypse and heartbreak. Deftly spinning haunting
plots, he conveys the joys and misfortunes of folks who confront trauma or loss
and find unexpected opportunities for survival.
Here is nature run amok: A tornado whirls away a man’s wife and daughter, but
they return midway into his ensuing romantic affair. Flood survivors in Califor-
nia’s coastal range build makeshift arks in anticipation of the world’s watery end.
Other stories fathom relationships, as a diabetic’s suicide in the title story renews
a cycle of unrequited love, or aging twins reconcile with the loss of their child-
hood intimacy. All come to grips with contemporary problems: poverty, disease,
or powerlessness in the face of economic inequality, religious fanaticism, and cor-
porate greed.
Whether writing from the point of view of a semiliterate handyman or an elderly
woman facing death on a cold night, Luvaas delivers stories, characters, and
voices that are the stuff of cutting-edge fiction. A Working Man’s Apocrypha is
masterful storytelling that will leave readers breathless.
William Luvaas, who teaches creative writing and literature at San Diego State
University, is the author of The Seductions of Natalie Bach and Going Under.
His short fiction, reviews, and essays have appeared in the American Literary
Review, Antioch Review, Cosmopolitan, The Village Voice, Harper’s Weekly, and

GEORGE THOMAS
Virginian for the Union
By Christopher J. Einolf
One of the North’s greatest generals—the Rock of Chickamauga
“A splendid biography”—James M. McPherson, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of
Battle Cry of Freedom
Most Southerners in the U.S. Army resigned their commissions to join the Con-
federacy in 1861. But at least one son of a distinguished, slaveholding Virginia
family remained loyal to the Union. George H. Thomas fought for the North and
secured key victories at Chickamauga and Nashville. Thomas’s wartime
experiences transformed him from a slaveholder to a defender of civil rights.
Remembered as the “Rock of Chickamauga,” Thomas became one of the most
prominent Union generals and was even considered for overall command of the
Union Army in Virginia. Yet he has been eclipsed by such names as Grant,
Sherman, and Sheridan.
Offering vivid accounts of combat, Einolf depicts the fighting from Thomas’s
perspective to allow a unique look at the real experience of decision making on
the battlefield. He examines the general’s recurring confrontations with the Union
high command to make a strong case for Thomas’s integrity and competence,
even as he exposes Thomas’s shortcomings and poor decisions. The result is a
more balanced, nuanced picture than has previously been available.
Probing Thomas’s personal character, Einolf reveals how a son of the South could
oppose the views of friends and family. George Thomas: Virginian for the Union
offers a fresh appraisal of an important career and lends new insight into the
inner conflicts of the Civil War.

A NORTHERN CHEYENNE ALBUM
Photographs by Thomas B. Marquis
Edited by Margot Liberty
Commentary by John Woodenlegs
Rare photographs document the lives of Cheyenne people during the
early reservation years
“For anyone interested in seeing a cultural transition chronicled in pictures and
narratives, this book is a gold mine.”—Richard E. Littlebear, President of Chief
Dull Knife College
In 1878 the Northern Cheyennes left what is now Oklahoma, where they had been
incarcerated, and began an epic journey back to their homeland. They suffered
great losses, but a small group of survivors reached its destination in southeastern
Montana in 1879 and eventually won the right to a reservation there. A Northern
Cheyenne Album presents a rare series of never-before-published photographs that
document the lives of tribal people on the reservation during the early twentieth
century—a period of rapid change.
Reservation physician and expert photographer Thomas B. Marquis captured
Northern Cheyenne life in numerous images taken from 1926 to 1935. After 1960,
former tribal president John Woodenlegs and others interviewed tribal elders and,

INTERNATIONAL ENCYCLOPEDIA
OF HORSE BREEDS
By Bonnie Hendricks
Foreword by Anthony A. Dent
A standard reference on horse breeds, illustrated and updated
“A fascinating, enlightening, and entertaining volume that belongs in every
horseman’s library”—Albuquerque Journal
Celebrating the animal that has been a stalwart servant to humankind for count-
less generations, Bonnie Hendricks’s International Encyclopedia of Horse Breeds
is the most thorough compilation of horse breeds ever attempted. The nearly four
hundred entries, arranged alphabetically, include foundation breeds now extinct
as well as extant breeds from across the globe. Each entry details the breed’s ori-
gin and background, size, appearance, chief use, and status (rare versus common).
A list of breed associations and government departments that supplied data and
photographs for the encyclopedia has been fully updated for this edition.
With its breadth and depth of coverage, as well as 530 black-and-white and 32
color illustrations, the encyclopedia continues to be a standard international
reference.
Bonnie L. Hendricks, who bred and raised quarter horses, Appaloosas, and
Spanish Barb Mustangs for many years, organized the American Buckskin Horse
Registry and the International Buckskin Horse Registry. She has spent more
than forty years studying horse breeds of the world. Anthony A. Dent, a leading

CHARLES GOODNIGHT
Father of the Texas Panhandle
By William T. Hagan
Biography of one of the most important cattlemen of the American West
“Fresh and valuable . . . a modern classic on the father of the Texas Panhandle.”
—David Dary, author of The Santa Fe Trail
Charles Goodnight was a pioneer of the early range cattle industry—an opinion-
ated and profane but energetic and well-liked rancher.
Goodnight’s story is now re-examined by William T. Hagan in this brief, authori-
tative account that considers the role of ranching in general—and Goodnight in
particular—in the development of the Texas Panhandle. The first major reassess-
ment of his life in seventy years, Charles Goodnight: Father of the Texas
Panhandle traces its subject’s life from hardscrabble farmer to cattle baron, giving
close attention to lesser-known aspects of his last thirty years.
Goodnight came up in the days when much of Texas was free range and open to
occupancy by any cattleman brave enough to stake a claim. Hagan shows how
Goodnight learned the cattle business and became one of the most famous ranch-
ers of the Southwest. Hagan also presents a clearer picture than ever before of
Goodnight’s business arrangements and investments, including the financial
setbacks of his later life.
As entertaining as it is informative, Hagan’s account takes readers back to the
Palo Duro Canyon and the Staked Plains to share insights into the cattleman’s
life—riding the range, fighting grass fires, driving cattle to the nearest railhead—
the very stuff of cowboy legend and lore. This fascinating biography enriches our
understanding of a Texas icon.

Foreword by M. Susan Savage
Interviews of Oklahoma history’s diverse women
They came in land runs and on the Trail of Tears, sometimes with families,
sometimes alone. But the women who first came to Oklahoma all had trials to
face—and stories to tell.
In this stirring collection, the women who settled what would become Oklahoma
tell their own stories in their own words. From thousands of interviews conducted
by the Works Progress Administration in 1936–37 and preserved in the Indian
Pioneer Papers of Oklahoma, editors Terri M. Baker and Connie Oliver Henshaw
have selected the words of women from a wide range of socioeconomic groups,
ethnic backgrounds, and geographical locations to relate the pioneer experience as
it was really lived.
Elegantly written, skillfully edited,Women Who Pioneered Oklahoma reflects the
everyday will and courage to survive of Oklahoma’s founding mothers. It conveys
the violence of a frontier culture set in a landscape of stark beauty where death
was always just a heartbeat away. A vital part of the state centennial, theirs is the
story of real Oklahoma, writ large—and in a distinctly female hand.
Terri M. Baker, a citizen of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, is Professor of
English at Northeastern State University, Tahlequah, Oklahoma, where she fo-

THE IRISH GENERAL

Thomas Francis Meagher
By Paul R. Wylie
Story of a controversial Irish revolutionary, Civil War general, and Montana governor
“An engaging biography”—James M. McPherson, Pulitzer Prize–winning author
of Battle Cry of Freedom
Irish patriot, Civil War general, frontier governor—Thomas Francis Meagher
played key roles in three major historical arenas. Today he is hailed as a hero by
some, condemned as a drunkard by others. Paul R. Wylie now offers a definitive
biography of this nineteenth-century figure who has long remained an enigma.
The Irish General first recalls Meagher’s life from his boyhood and leadership of
Young Ireland in the revolution of 1848, to his exile in Tasmania and escape to
New York, where he found fame as an orator and as editor of the Irish News. He
served in the Civil War—viewing the Union Army as training for a future Irish
revolutionary force—and rose to the rank of brigadier general leading the famous
Irish Brigade. Wylie traces Meagher’s military career in detail through the Seven
Days battles, Antietam, Fredericksburg, and Chancellorsville.
Wylie then recounts Meagher’s final years as acting governor of Montana Ter-
ritory, sorting historical truth from false claims made against him regarding the
militia he formed to combat attacking American Indians, and plumbing the mys-
tery surrounding his death.
Even as Meagher is lauded in most Irish histories, his statue in front of Montana’s
capitol is viewed by some with contempt. The Irish General brings this multi-
talented but seriously flawed individual to life, offering a balanced picture of the
man and a captivating reading experience.

WILLIAM F. CODY’S WYOMING EMPIRE

The Buffalo Bill Nobody Knows
By Robert E. Bonner
The story of Cody’s efforts as a town builder and irrigation entrepreneur
Celebrated showman of the Old West, William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody took on
another role unknown to most Americans, that of the western land developer and
town promoter. In this captivating study, Robert E. Bonner demonstrates that the
skills Cody acquired from decades in show business failed to prepare him for the
demanding arena of business and finance.
Bonner examines Cody’s efforts as president of the Shoshone Irrigation Company
to develop the Big Horn Basin through large-scale irrigation and town develop-
ment. This meticulously researched account shows us a Buffalo Bill preoccupied
with making a buck and not at all shy about using his fame to do it.
Cody spent huge sums, bullied partners, patronized state officials, and exercised
his charm in pursuit of developing the high plains east of Yellowstone National
Park. His efforts helped shape the city of Cody and the Big Horn Basin. With the
famous Irma Hotel as a cornerstone, he built the first infrastructure of the Cody-
Yellowstone tourist trade and connected his little Wyoming town with the wealth
of the East through personal hospitality and travel.
Laced with engaging anecdotes and featuring more than twenty photographs,
William F. Cody’s Wyoming Empire is a much needed look at an overly mytholo-
gized character. There was more to William F. Cody than the Wild West show—
and we cannot construct a full picture of the man without understanding his
entrepreneurial activities in Wyoming.

field, Minnesota. His numerous articles have appeared in such journals as the

DEADLY DOZEN
Forgotten Gunfighters of the Old West, Volume 2
By Robert K. DeArment
Overlooked shooters who made their deadly mark on the Old West
Think gunfighter, and Wyatt Earp or Billy the Kid may come to mind, but what
of Jim Moon? Joel Fowler? Zack Light? A host of other figures helped forge the
gunfighter persona, but their stories have been lost to time. In a sequel to his
Deadly Dozen, celebrated western historian Robert K. DeArment now offers
more biographical portraits of lesser-known gunfighters—men who perhaps
weren’t glorified in legend or song, but who were rightfully notorious in their day.
DeArment has tracked down stories of gunmen from throughout the West—
characters you won’t find in any of today’s western history encyclopedias but
whose careers are colorfully described here. Photos of the men and telling quota-
tions from primary sources make these characters come alive.
In giving these men their due, DeArment takes readers back to the gunfighter
culture spawned in part by the upheavals of the Civil War, to a time when deadly
duels were part of the social fabric of frontier towns and the Code of the West
was real. His vignettes offer telling insights into conditions on the frontier that
created the gunfighters of legend.
These overlooked shooters never won national headlines but made their own con-
tributions to the blood and thunder of the Old West: people less than legends, but
all the more fascinating because they were real. Readers who enjoyed DeArment’s
Deadly Dozen will find this book equally captivating—as gripping as a show-
down, twelve times over.

American West, including the original Deadly Dozen: Twelve Forgotten Gun-

VOLUNTEERS ON THE VELD

Britain’s Citizen-Soldiers and the
South African War, 1899–1902
By Stephen M. Miller
How England’s volunteers got more than they bargained for in the Boer War
When the Second Boer War erupted in South Africa in 1899, Great Britain was
confident that victory would come quickly and decisively. Instead, the war lasted
for three grueling years. To achieve final victory, the British government was
forced to depend not only on its Regular Army but also on a large volunteer
force. This book spotlights Britain’s “citizen army” to show who these volunteers
were, why they enlisted, how they were trained—and how they quickly became
disillusioned when they found themselves committed not to the supposed glories
of conventional battle but instead to a prolonged guerrilla war.
In Volunteers on the Veld, Stephen M. Miller focuses on the connection between
Britain’s auxiliary forces—volunteers, militia, and yeomanry—and its imperial
mission during the late Victorian era, looking especially at why the British war
effort came to depend on their performance. Miller examines motivations for
enlistment, the use of citizen-soldiers in guerrilla warfare, and the effects of com-
bat on the soldiers themselves, weaving together the sense of national emergency,
the influence of popular culture, and images of manhood that propelled so many
Britons into the ranks of volunteers.
By revisiting one of the most significant guerrilla wars of the modern age—and
one of the earliest examples of the use of modern media to promote mobilization
for a foreign war—Volunteers on the Veld lends fresh insight into British imperial
warfare while suggesting unmistakable parallels between these citizen-soldiers and
today’s American volunteers in Iraq.

CHOCTAW LANGUAGE AND CULTURE
Chahta Anumpa Volume 2
By Marcia Haag and Henry Willis
Stories of Choctaw lives convey lessons in language
Building on the foundations laid by the first volume of Choctaw Language and
Culture, this follow-up text presents a more advanced linguistic study of Okla-
homa Choctaw, accompanied by short stories and anecdotes written by Choctaws
in their native language.
The book is organized around twelve texts with translations, each followed by a
grammar lesson, a vocabulary section that acquaints students with new words,
a word-study section, and exercises. The authors present such topics as idioms,
ways to say “or,” negative conditionals, and compound tenses. Particularly
important is the subject of negation, which permeates Choctaw at all levels, and
the concept of definiteness. The authors also demonstrate the many ways a single
Choctaw word can be modified to yield subtle differences in meaning. Exercises
encourage the student to think about how the language works rather than relying
on rote memorization.
Volume 2 of Choctaw Language and Culture is designed to help teachers and
students alike further their understanding of Choctaw by working with and
mastering grammatically complex examples of its use. It marks the first such
advanced textbook of Choctaw as well as the first easily available reference gram-
mar for teachers. By including actual voices of Choctaw people describing their
own lives, it also represents a unique new repository of Choctaw culture.
Contributors include Jay McAlvain, Phillip Carroll Morgan, Grayson Noley, Bill

THE CHOCTAWS IN OKLAHOMA

From Tribe to Nation, 1855–1970
By Clara Sue Kidwell
Foreword by Lindsay G. Robertson
The story of a people overcoming colonization
The road from dispossessed people to successful nation was a long one, but for
the Choctaws it has been worth the journey. This book examines how one tribe
moved beyond setbacks to establish a powerful modern tribal government.
The Choctaws in Oklahoma begins with the Choctaws’ removal from Mississippi
to Indian Territory in the 1830s and then traces the history of the tribe’s subse-
quent efforts to retain and expand its rights and to reassert tribal sovereignty in
the late twentieth century. As Kidwell explains, Choctaws adapted to the very
structures imposed on them by their colonizers: courts and laws. Tribal politicians
quickly learned to use the rhetoric of dependency on the government, but they
also demanded justice in the form of fulfillment of their treaty rights, and the
Choctaw Nation confronted the government as a legal adversary to achieve its
own ends. The Choctaws have adroitly negotiated with the United States and
created the Choctaw Nation that exists today.
The Choctaws’ story illuminates a key point in contemporary scholarship on the
history of American Indians: that they were not passive victims of colonization
and did not assimilate quietly into American society. The Choctaws in Oklahoma
illustrates one tribe’s remarkable success in asserting its sovereignty and establish-
ing a national identity in the face of seemingly insurmountable legal obstacles.

MATILDA COXE STEVENSON

Pioneering Anthropologist
By Darlis A. Miller
Foreword by Louis A. Hieb
A woman in a man’s world among the Pueblos of the Southwest
The first woman anthropologist to work in the Southwest, Matilda Coxe Stevenson
(1849–1915) helped define the contours of anthropological research at the turn of
the twentieth century. In this first book-length biography of Stevenson, Darlis A.
Miller challenges older interpretations of her subject’s life and work as she traces
one woman’s quest for professional recognition in the face of social constraints.
Stevenson worked for more than a quarter century with the Bureau of American
Ethnology and was the only professional woman to hold a full-time position there.
Despite the obstacles posed by gender bias, she earned recognition for her pioneer-
ing ethnographies of the Zia and Zuni Indians.
Miller also examines Stevenson’s field techniques in the context of the anthropol-
ogy of her day, as well as the personal traits that contributed to her professional
success but caused some colleagues to focus more on her personality than her
accomplishments.
As Miller shows, Stevenson’s work fostered a better understanding of Pueblo cul-
tures and helped to undermine racial stereotypes. This book gives her due recogni-
tion, lending compelling insight into a remarkable career while offering new views

INDIAN CONQUISTADORS
Indigenous Allies in the Conquest of Mesoamerica
Edited by Laura E. Matthew and Michel R. Oudijk
��
Reassesses the first invasion of the New World
The conquest of the New World would hardly have been possible if the invading
Spaniards had not allied themselves with the indigenous population. This book
takes into account the role of native peoples as active agents in the Conquest
��
through a review of new sources and more careful analysis of known but under-
studied materials that demonstrate the overwhelming importance of native allies ��
in both conquest and colonial control. ��
In Indian Conquistadors, leading scholars offer the most comprehensive look to

��
date at native participation in the conquest of Mesoamerica. The contributors ��
examine pictorial, archaeological, and documentary evidence spanning three cen-
� � � � � � � ��
turies, including little-known eyewitness accounts from both Spanish and native
��
documents, paintings (lienzos) and maps (mapas) from the colonial period, and a
new assessment of imperialism in the region before the Spanish arrival.
This new research shows that the Tlaxcalans, the most famous allies of the Span-
ish, were far from alone. Not only did native lords throughout Mesoamerica
supply arms, troops, and tactical guidance, but tens of thousands of warriors—
Nahuas, Mixtecs, Zapotecs, Mayas, and others—spread throughout the region to
participate with the Spanish in a common cause.
By offering a more balanced account of this dramatic period, this book calls into
question traditional narratives that emphasize indigenous peoples’ roles as auxil-
iaries rather than as conquistadors in their own right. Enhanced with twelve maps
and more than forty illustrations, Indian Conquistadors opens a vital new line of
research and challenges our understanding of this important era.

MR. JEFFERSON’S HAMMER

William Henry Harrison and the Origins
of American Indian Policy
By Robert M. Owens
How Harrison set the pattern for Indian treaty making
Often remembered as the president who died shortly after taking office, William
Henry Harrison remains misunderstood by most Americans. Before becoming the
ninth president of the United States in 1841, Harrison was instrumental in shap-
ing the early years of westward expansion. Robert M. Owens now explores that
era through the lens of Harrison’s career, providing a new synthesis of his role in
the political development of Indiana Territory and in shaping Indian policy in the
Old Northwest.
Owens traces Harrison’s political career as secretary of the Northwest Territory,
territorial delegate to Congress, and governor of Indiana Territory, as well as his
military leadership and involvement with Indian relations. Thomas Jefferson, who
was president during the first decade of the nineteenth century, found in Harrison
the ideal agent to carry out his administration’s ruthless campaign to extinguish
Indian land titles.
More than a study of the man, Mr. Jefferson’s Hammer is a cultural biography of
his fellow settlers, telling how this first generation of post-Revolutionary Ameri-
cans realized their vision of progress and expansionism. It surveys the military,
political, and social world of the early Ohio Valley and shows that Harrison’s
attitudes and behavior reflected his Virginia background and its eighteenth-cen-
tury notions as much as his frontier milieu.
To this day, we live with the echoes of Harrison’s proclamations, the boundaries
set by his treaties, and the ramifications of his actions. Mr. Jefferson’s Hammer

THE SEMINOLE FREEDMEN

A History
By Kevin Mulroy
Captures the distinct identity and history of the Seminole maroons
Popularly known as “Black Seminoles,” descendents of the Seminole freedmen
of Indian Territory are a unique American cultural group. Now Kevin Mulroy
examines the long history of these people to show that this label denies them
their rightful distinctiveness. To correct misconceptions of the historical relation-
ship between Africans and Seminole Indians, he traces the emergence of Seminole-
black identity and community from their eighteenth-century Florida origins to the
present day.
Arguing that the Seminole freedmen are neither Seminoles, Africans, nor “black
Indians,” Mulroy proposes that they are maroon descendants who inhabit their
own racial and cultural category, which he calls “Seminole maroon.” Mulroy
plumbs the historical record to show clearly that, although allied with the Semi-
noles, these maroons formed independent and autonomous communities that
dealt with European American society differently than either Indians or African
Americans did.
Mulroy describes the freedmen’s experiences as runaways from southern planta-
tions, slaves of American Indians, participants in the Seminole Wars, and
emigrants to the West. He then recounts their history during the Civil War,
Reconstruction, enrollment and allotment under the Dawes Act, and early
Oklahoma statehood. He also considers freedmen relations with Seminoles in
Oklahoma during the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
Although freedmen and Seminoles enjoy a partially shared past, this book shows
that the freedmen’s history and culture are unique and entirely their own.

SCOTTISH HIGHLANDERS AND

NATIVE AMERICANS
Indigenous Education in the Eighteenth-Century
Atlantic World
By Margaret Connell Szasz
Two indigenous cultures encounter Scottish educators in the eighteenth century
“A masterful performance and a truly original study.”—David Wallace Adams,
author of Education for Extinction: American Indians and the Boarding School
Experience, 1875–1928
The Society in Scotland for the Propagation of Christian Knowledge (SSPCK) was
founded in 1709 by Scottish Lowlanders for the education of Highlanders: spe-
cifically to convert them from the Gaelic language to English, from the Episcopal
faith to Presbyterianism, and from latent Jacobitism to loyalty to the crown. In a
transatlantic translation of this effort, the “Scottish Society” also established itself
in the New World to educate and assimilate Iroquois, Algonquin, and southeast-
ern Native peoples.
In this first book-length examination of the SSPCK, Margaret Connell Szasz
explores the origins of the Scottish Society’s policies of cultural colonialism and
their influence on two disparate frontiers. Drawing intriguing parallels between
the treatment of Highland Scots and of Native Americans, she incorporates mul-
tiple perspectives on the cultural encounter, juxtaposing the attitudes of Highland-
ers and Lowlanders, English colonials and Native peoples, while giving voice to
the Society’s pupils and graduates, its schoolmasters, and religious leaders.
Featuring more than two dozen illustrations, Scottish Highlanders and Native
Americans brims with intriguing comparisons and insights into two cultures on

HEALTH CARE IN MAYA GUATEMALA
Confronting Medical Pluralism in a
Developing Country
Edited by Walter Randolph Adams and John P. Hawkins
Creating more enlightened health care for traditional cultures
When the traditional meets the modern, nowhere is the impact felt as personally as
in the realm of health care. Because practitioners trained in Western science tend
to ignore traditional medicine in developing countries, conflict is inevitable.
Health Care in Maya Guatemala examines medical systems and institutions in
three K’iche’ Maya communities to reveal the conflicts between indigenous medi-
cal care and the Guatemalan biomedical system. The editors and contributors
show how people in this rapidly modernizing society think about traditional
practices—and reveal that health conditions in traditional communities deterio-
rate over time as long-standing medical practices erode in the face of Western
encroachment.
The contributors first consider cultural, institutional, and behavioral aspects of
health care in Guatemala. Then they look closely at the nature and treatment of
spe-cific health issues, such as dentistry and mental health—especially depression.
Finally they provide new insight on midwifery, nutrition, ethnomedicine, and

ROOTS OF RESISTANCE
A History of Land Tenure in New Mexico
By Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz
Foreword by Simon J. Ortiz
An updated edition of a seminal work on the history of
land ownership in the Southwest
“Underscores the centrality of land questions for this vital and diverse section
of the United States—questions that continue to energize public discourse, state
politics, and cultural reflections.”—Juan Gómez-Quiñones, author of Roots of
Chicano Politics, 1600–1940
In New Mexico—once a Spanish colony, then part of Mexico—Pueblo Indians
and descendants of Spanish- and Mexican-era settlers still think of themselves as
distinct peoples, each with a dynamic history. At the core of these persistent cul-
tural identities is each group’s historical relationship to the others and to the land,
a connection that changed dramatically when the United States wrested control of
the region from Mexico in 1848.
In Roots of Resistance—now offered in an updated paperback edition—Roxanne
Dunbar-Ortiz provides a history of land ownership in northern New Mexico from
1680 to the present. She shows how indigenous and Mexican farming communi-
ties adapted and preserved their fundamental democratic social and economic
