Description: "Rare look at the other side of the 'noble Indian' depicted in Mexican official history. These tales of Mexicans held in captivity among the indigenous peoples indicate that tribes in Nuevo México, for whatever reasons, did not capture norteamericanos. These accounts beg for comparison with those of the US and Argentina during the same time period"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
