1812 INDIAN Wars 1^ed Christopher Columbus Americana Torture New England RARE

Daniel Clarke Sanders’s “History of the Indian Wars” is one of the most important 19^th-century accounts of the United States’ wars with Native American Indian tribes. Rosenbach says of this work,

“This work is one of the best summaries of the Indian Wars which had up to that time appeared. It includes not only the early colonial struggles, but also the late 18th century fighting in the Middle West”.

It includes accounts of

• Christopher Columbus and his battles against Indians tribes,
• the Indian campaigns of generals Winfield Scott, Arthur St. Clair, and Benjamin Butler
• Indians torturing their prisoners
  • Brutal descriptions of torture scenarios
• The extinction of New England Indian churches

This 1812 first edition is truly remarkably. Not only are the contents some of the most desirable of the early 19^th-century, but the beautiful binding on this example make it a highly valuable and coveted piece.
