About this title: J P Dunn's "Massacres of the Mountains" has been called the best single work on the Indian Wars of the American West. Dunn's sympathy for, and understanding of, the plight of the Native American was remarkable for his day. Eminent Western historian Dan Thrapp said of the book, "Its remarkable accuracy, thoroughness of coverage, scope, and sound judgement displayed have enabled it to retain its place as a cornerstone in the history of Indian-white conflicts".
