The Indian War of 1864 chronicles one of the bloodiest conflicts between the European settlers and military forces of the United States, and the Native American tribes. A shocking account of the bloodshed and damage wrought as white settlers moved relentlessly westward during the 19th century, this book lays bare the scale of the conflicts with the Native Americans. Furthermore it is authentic: a first-hand, somewhat biographical recollection of the conflict penned by a young American cavalryman posted to the Western frontier with the mission of securing it for settlers. The conflicts took place simultaneously with the American Civil War, and it was thus that rumors of the Confederacy joining with the Native American tribes in hindering the expansion of the United States are present. Despite its title, this book is not entirely about the skirmishes fought: descriptions of the land, the fledgling frontier society of the 'Wild West' era, and members of the native tribes are likewise included. Eugene Ware was already well into maturity when he adapted these recollections from a diary he jotted notes. Later in life, he would enjoy prominence as a local Kansas tradesman and politician. He was also a poet whose verse was well-received and quite acclaimed in his locality. This edition of The Indian War of 1864 contains every illustration appended in Eugene Ware's original book; mainly these are sketches of ridges, hills and pathways which Ware felt benefited from visual representation. Also included are the three appendices, which recount separate stories relevant to the events of 1864.
