Sifting fact from folklore, there titles in the Native American Chiefs and Warriors series introduce key Native American leaders during the time of westward expansion. After an overview of each leader's youth, including family life, vision quests, and warrior training, each book focuses on the U.S. government's infringement upon Native American land and how these leaders responded. Comanche Chief Quanah Parker tells how Quanah, the last Comanche chief, at first drew controversy for surrendering to the U.S. government and agreeing to live on a reservation. He later earned praise for effectively bridging both cultures. Oglala Lakota Chief Red Cloud recounts Red Cloud's fight to prevent whites from traveling along the Bozeman and Oregon Trails, his meeting with President Ulysses Grant, and his band's forced move to a reservation. Oglala Sioux Chief Crazy Horse describes Crazy Horse's success as a chief and warrior, particularly during the Battle of the Little Bighorn, and the resulting jealousy among other Sioux leaders that led to his contentious death. Seminole Chief Osceola explains the problems that arose when the U.S. acquired Florida and Osceola's resistance against the government's seizure of Seminole land. Accompanied by archival photos and reproductions, these well-balanced biographies encourage students to learn more about these unsung American figures., Booklist May 1, 2013

Synopsis
Quannah Parker was the last great chief of the Comanche. In this biography, the author tells the real story of this fearless leader, who led attacks on buffalo hunters, including the famous battle at Adobe Walls. For many years, Chief Quanah Parker eluded the U.S. Army and preserved the Comanche way of life. Later, he led his people during their years on the reservation, and helped them adjust to their new way of life.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
