Description
To Live and Die in the West: The American Indian Wars is a richly illustrated historical volume that examines one of the most turbulent periods in North American history—the long and tragic struggle between Indigenous peoples and the expanding United States frontier. Authored by military historian Jason Hook and weapons expert Martin Pegler, this compelling work draws from previously published Osprey volumes and combines detailed research with vivid artwork and archival imagery. The book traces major battles, strategic campaigns, and cultural impacts spanning from the early 19th century through the final conflicts of the late 1800s.
With thoughtful commentary and poignant insights, Hook and Pegler give voice to both Native American warriors and U.S. soldiers, presenting a balanced view of a complex and painful era. The visual presentation enhances understanding, from battlefield reconstructions to portraits of key figures. This collector-worthy edition is ideal for history enthusiasts, educators, and anyone interested in the legacy of the American West. Preserved in an archival sleeve, this copy is in excellent condition—making it a standout addition to any Western Americana or military history collection.
