description: This is the story of the leadership, organization, campaigns undertaken, tactics and strategy employed in Mexican Texas by Stephen F. Austin's militia against hostile Indians and others from 1822 to 1835. It is a story central to the survival and eventual success of the first Anglo-American colony in Texas. Dr. Gregg Cantrell, biographer of Stephen F. Austin, in a Foreword written for the book, says that, "It is a story worth telling". He also confirms that, "More than just a factual account of the Indian wars, this book will leave the reader with a better understanding of how American frontiersmen responded to a harsh environment and foreign cultures. In doing so our picture of Western and Texas history grows more complete".
