Empire of the Summer Moon

"Fucking great book."

"I admire the purity of that way of life."

"This book recounts how the Comanche, through extraordinary fighting and survival skills, succeeded longer than any other Native American group in blocking white society's intrusion on their land. Central to the story is Quanah Parker, a mixed-race war leader whose white mother was captured by the Comanche as a teenager."

"The early history of the American West, its culture, and the collision of history between American Settlers and Native Americans."
