EDITORS COMMENTS

The American Indian Wars, a tumultuous chapter in United States history, were marked by countless battles and clashes between Native American tribes and the expanding forces of the US government. General George A. Custer, infamous for his role in the Battle of Little Bighorn, is captured in a striking black and white photograph - a reminder of his ill-fated last stand. In an unexpected turn of events, a delegation of Sioux chiefs led by Red Cloud traveled to Washington D. C. , seeking justice and recognition for their people's rights. This powerful image serves as evidence that even amidst conflict, attempts at diplomacy were made. General Andrew Jackson's lithograph depicts him during the battle at Talushatchee in 1813. His determined gaze reflects the intensity of these encounters where both sides fought fiercely for control over land and resources. The aftermaths of these wars left indelible scars on both sides. A burial party solemnly gathers Indian dead after the tragic Wounded Knee Massacre in January 1891 – a haunting black-and-white photograph capturing the devastating consequences of violence. An ink and watercolor depiction portrays an intense moment during the Battle of Little Bighorn when a warrior strikes down a US cavalry trooper - showcasing moments that defined this era with unyielding brutality. "The Fight for the Water Hole" lithograph showcases one aspect among many conflicts: access to vital resources such as water became battlegrounds where lives were lost on both sides. Another chilling lithograph shows rows upon rows of Indian dead following The Wounded Knee Massacre – an event that remains etched into our collective memory as one filled with tragedy and loss. An engraving from The Graphic illustrates "The Opening of the Fight at Wounded Knee, " providing visual documentation published just weeks after this horrific incident occurred; it serves as another testament to its significance within history. A colored engraving captures skeletons discovered after soldiers fell victim to Native American retaliation during the Kidder Massacre in 1867.
