The Comanche Empire

Most histories treat Native groups as static or peripheral, but this book redefines the Comanche's role in regional power. I'm curious what led to this perspective.

Their story of empire-building challenges many preconceptions about Native American societies. Did this change how others view indigenous history for you?

Given the scarcity of written records from the Comanche themselves, the author had to rely heavily on external accounts. I wonder what went into selecting and interpreting these sources.
