Warriors of the World: The Native American Warrior 1500 AD - 1900 AD
This illustrated book examines the various tribes that fought both themselves and the various European colonizers across the North American continent, and how the equipment and training of the braves within each tribe developed over time. From the first contact tribes in New England to the remote tribes of the Northwest, the book examines the significant differences between how warriors actually fought, the equipment they used to fight, and the reason why such different combat techniques were used. It also demonstrates the effects of European and American technology on how Native American braves waged war. With detailed color illustrations and fact-filled accompanying text, Warriors of the World is the essential guide for any enthusiast for the period. 1 vol, 224 pgs
