Comanches And War On The Texas Frontier by Al White. In the mid-nineteenth century westward settlement in Texas was stopped in its tracks by the Comanches, widely recognized at the time as the best mounted warriors in the world. The half-century struggle that ensued between the fledging state and America’s most fierce Indian tribe is depicted here. Battle sites, forts, trails and much more are shown on this graphically pleasing and historically rich map. Framed prints are assembled, packaged, and shipped by our expert framing staff and delivered "ready to hang" with pre-attached hanging wire, mounting hooks, and nails.
