Presented in this lot is "Northwestern Fights & Fighters", 1923, by Cyrus Townsend Brady. Brady (1861–1920), was a journalist, historian and adventure writer, who published over 70 novels, all with an accurate historical basis, many of them based on incidents and historical figures in American history. "Northwest Fights and Fighters", part of Brady's American Fights & Fighters Series, focuses specifically on two wars, the Nez Perce War and the Modoc War, which the United States Army fought against the indigenous Indian tribes of the north west in the period following the American Civil War. The Nez Perce War was fought against that tribe under Chief Joseph's inspired leadership and the Modoc War was a grueling, bitter campaign fought in the inhospitable lava beds of northern California (called Ktai' Tala by the Modocs). The accounts and recollections of these two war comprise the entire book and Brady therefore deals with his subjects in some detail. He has particularly drawn upon the first hand narratives of those combatants who fought on both sides of the conflicts and this very much enhances the book's value, since these accounts rarely appear elsewhere in print. Illustrated with original drawings, maps and photographs, including the frontispiece photograph of Chief Joseph. The reddish cloth bound gold gilt hardcover exhibits slight scuffing and staining, gilt is faded, spine is loose at joints. Intact pages exhibit age tanning and foxing. Measures 5.5"W x 8.25"L x 1.5"D
