Drawing on anthropology and ethnohisotry as well as the 'new military history' Indian Wars of Mexico, Canada and the United States, 1812-1900 interprets and compares the way Indians and European Americans waged wars in Canada, Mexico, the USA and Yucat ¡n during the nineteenth century.
Fully illustrated with sixteen maps, detailing key Indian settlements and crucial battles, Bruce Vandervort rescues the New World Indian Wars from their exclusion from mainstream military history, and reveals how they are an integral part of global history. Providing a thorough examination of the strategies and tactics of resistance employed by Indian peoples of the USA, Vandervort contrasts practices of warfare with the Matis (the French Canadian-Indian peoples), their Canadian Indian allies, and the Yaqui and Mayan Indians of Mexico and Yucat ¡n.
