• Two of American author Charles Haven Ladd Johnson's Wild West books are bound in this Kindle edition: Famous Frontiersmen And Heroes of the Border (Their Adventurous Lives and Stirring Experiences in Pioneering Days) & Famous Indian Chiefs, (Their Battles, Treaties, Sieges, and Struggles with the Whites for the Possession of America)
Famous Frontiersmen And Heroes of the Border
Johnson describes his book as "Stories of valiant and daring adventurers, who were among the early settlers of the wilderness. These men were real scouts and trappers, for they lived in the wilds and had to know how to shoot a rifle; how to trap; and how to camp in whatever place night happened to overtake them. Savage men and wild beasts were frequently encountered, and desperate were the fights which these fellows engaged in. Some of them lived to a happy and prosperous old age; some perished from exposure, or by the hands of their red enemies."
Famous Indian Chiefs, Their Battles, Treaties, Sieges, and Struggles with the Whites for the Possession of America
These are the stories of (among others) Pontiac, The Red Napoleon; Black Hawk, Chief of the Sacs and Foxes and Leader of the Black Hawk Rebellion; Geronimo, the Terrible Apache; Red Cloud, the Sioux von Seydlitz; Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, general and able Lieutenant of the Great Sioux Rebellion.
In Johnson's words: "In the long struggle for the possession of American land, several chiefs arose whose qualities of mind were superior to that of many of their contemporaries. The names of some of these stand out brightly upon the pages of history, and the records of their deeds and daring show that they were Indians who possessed a bravery quite equal to that of their enemies, even if their other qualities were inferior."
