Indian Raids and Massacres covers incidents in Kansas, Colorado, and Nebraska from 1864-1870. Each chapter is a story unto itself and the book can be read in any order as well as from beginning to end. There are two sides to these violent events, and, while the focus is on the Euro- American perspective, the contrary perspective of the Native American is also presented. Untapped Indian depredation claims housed in Washington, DC give the reader a deeper understanding of the terrors of Indian raids, especially when experienced by new settlers to the region. What emerges represents a bold and new history not found in other published accounts. These chapters reflect more than 20 years of Broome's research and writing on the Central Plains Indian War.
