T.R. Ferenbach: "The Comanches: The Destruction of a people."

Don't mess with Texas. It took over sixty years, but the Texas
frontier was finally pacified by the Colt revolver and the Texas
Rangers under Captain Jack B. Hays. There was never a more fearsome
opponent to westward expansion than the Comanche, and this book tells
why. They were the best horsemen ever observed, or so thought the
Prussian calverymen who encountered them. Ferenbach postulates that
they were finally defeated only because of their unwillingness to
take casualties. Regards,

J.R.
