5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting insight, May 22, 2001
By 
Daniel R. Marcelain (Macomb, MI United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Scalping and Torture Warfare Practices Among North American Indians (Paperback)
For a short paperback work, the author provided some interesting insight of how different Native American tribes used scalping and torture for economic and political reasons. In addition, on how the practice was routinely accepted as part of their culture on a wide scale. No matter what the reason it definitely made a major impact on the colonial society, and deterred expansion for decades. The book gives detailed accounts of attacks and retributions for incursions by white colonials and other Native tribes, with the harshest punishment it seems done against other Natives. A must read for those studying the frontier and colonial eras.
