Kit Carson and the Indians
Author: Thomas W. Dunlay

ISBN: 9780803217157
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 568
Book Description
Portrayed by past historians as the greatest guide and Indian fighter in the West, Kit Carson has become in recent years a historical pariah--a brutal murderer who betrayed the Navajos, and an unwitting dupe of American expansion, and a racist. Many historians now question both his reputation and his place in the pantheon of American heroes. Here we are urged to reconsider Carson yet again. Carson was a man of the nineteenth century, whose racial views and actions were much like those of his contemporaries.
