Plain Enemies: Best True Stories of the Frontier West

Distributed by the University of Nebraska Press for Caxton Press

The years 1830-1870 were years of expansion west as the U.S. government encouraged patriots to civilize its great untamed wilderness. But the West was already occupied–by Native peoples. The conflicts that ensued are legendary, but many stories are yet to be told.  Veteran author Bob Scott brings many of these more obscure stories to light.
