The maps alone make this an extremely valuable book. But Greg Michno's thoroughly researched and readable narrative of the least-known major Indian war is a welcome contribution to the history of Indian-white relations. -- Robert Utley

A
FATE WORSE THAN DEATH
Indian
Captivities in the West
1830-1885
GREGORY
and SUSAN MICHNO
"These compelling stories of human suffering and survival have both an individual and a cumulative impact. By going where many historians have not been willing to go, to the actual records, the Michnos have given incontrovertible evidence that Indian captivity in the West, especially for women, was indeed a grim fate. Rape and slavery are never justified, and its victims deserve the respectful attention and sympathy that A Fate Worse Than Death gives them." -- Louise Barnett, author of Touched By Fire

Caxton
Press has been producing
trade titles for more than 80 years. In 1925, most book publishers were
located in the eastern United States. Caxton owner, J.H. Gipson, realized
it was difficult for new writers, particularly those in the West, to
attract the attention of the eastern presses. Gipson founded the publishing
division to give those writers a voice. Western Americana non fiction
remains our focus today at Caxton. We define Western Americana as almost
any topic that deals with the people or culture of the West, past and
present.
