Bag om Satanta

Satanta: The Great Chief of the Kiowas and His People is a historical account of the life and times of Satanta, a prominent Native American chief who led the Kiowa tribe during the mid-19th century. The book is written by Clarence Wharton, an American historian and journalist who specialized in the study of Native American history.The book begins by providing a brief overview of the Kiowa tribe and their way of life before delving into the life story of Satanta. Born in the mid-1800s, Satanta was a charismatic and influential leader who played a pivotal role in shaping the history of the Kiowa people. He was known for his strategic military tactics, his diplomatic skills, and his unwavering commitment to the preservation of his people's way of life.The book covers Satanta's early life, his rise to power, and his interactions with other Native American tribes as well as with European settlers and the US government. It also explores the complex relationships between the Kiowa people and the various other groups with whom they interacted, including the Comanche, Apache, and Cheyenne tribes, as well as the US military and government officials.Throughout the book, Wharton provides a detailed and nuanced account of Satanta's life and the broader historical context in which he lived. He draws on a wide range of primary and secondary sources to paint a vivid picture of the Kiowa people and their struggles to maintain their way of life in the face of increasing pressure from outside forces.Overall, Satanta: The Great Chief of the Kiowas and His People is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in Native American history, the American West, or the history of US-Indigenous relations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
