The Modoc War by Cyrus Townsend Brady is a historical account of the conflict between the Modoc tribe and the United States government in the late 19th century. The book covers the events leading up to the war, including the forced relocation of the Modoc people to a reservation in Oregon, and the tensions that arose between the tribe and the government. The author also delves into the personalities of the key players in the conflict, including the Modoc leader Captain Jack and the US Army commander General Edward Canby. The book describes the battles and negotiations that took place during the war, as well as the aftermath and its impact on both the Modoc people and the United States government's policies towards Native American tribes. The Modoc War provides a comprehensive and detailed account of this often-overlooked chapter in American history.THIS 114 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Northwestern Fights and Fighters, by Cyrus Townsend Brady.
