Book Reviews of A Fate Worse Than Death: Indian Captivities in the West 1830-1885

Book Review: A Fate Worse Than Death
Summary: 3 Stars

This book details the real life experiences of old west travellers and settlers attacked and captured by Indians. Not a book to warm the hearts of Indian appologists, it helps balance the scales a bit from the noble Indian concept so politically correct today. I would recommend it for anyone interested in a broader perspective of life in the old west.
