Trade Review
"This work gives an excellent picture not only of the changing military patterns ... from the early part of the seventeenth century through the early part of the nineteenth century, but it also gives a vivid picture of the impact of the Spanish, French, and English cul-tures upon the lives and customs of the Indians who inhabited the Great Plains."--Chronicles of Oklahoma. " As a historical study covering not only tribal changes, conflicts and movements, but also the effect of horse and gun on the balance of power and on the fur trade, this is both interesting and stimulating reading."--New Mexico Historical Review. "Carefully documented and well-written... an excellent and interesting work."--Southwestern Historical Quar-terly.
