Most of these people’s lives would have been forgotten many years ago had they not of been written down for our benefit. The Indians were truly savages. It wasn’t all piece pipes and fishing. It was pure savagery and depredations especially with the Comanches.

Written in 1888, by a man who lived through the Texas Indian war. The language used is of that time and a bit archaic, but the first hand accounts, are very interesting.

Written in 1888, incredible first hand accounts

Not once did the narrator pronounce “escape” correctly. He also apparently does not know that a mounted force is a cavalry, not a Calvary. He badly mispronounces Texas place names and several other words as well. It’s hard to believe this narration was allowed to stand; did no one listen before this was finalized?

Good story, poor narrator

A lot of very storys unheard story's
this is a very one-sided the Indians where always bad guys. Never talked about the whites wrong doings. I was hoping for a book that was balanced the good and bad of both races not so one-sided.

A bit one-sided

The stories were interesting. It was interesting to hear about those days and the places that I know so well about Texas. However, the reader or narrator badly butchers the word “escape”, he says eks-scape. Over and over. And the place names many times are butchered too: San Wasinto instead of San Jacinto, Sabinal, Uvalde, Perdenales, and a few others, including surnames too. But, it was good history.

In this day it sounded fairly murderous and racist, but that was how it was in those days

great story, writing etc...

Reader always pronounced escape with an X.

Should learn to spell.
Audible’s 15 word minimum is absurd, Insulting to minimalists.

Too much redundancy
