Their study of this neglected slice of Southwestern history deserves applause." -Evan S. Connell, Los Angeles Times Book Review "A rich feast for the curious and theorist alike." -Pacific Historical Review "Kroeber and Fontana describe a little-known event, provide an effective analysis of the cultures of Indian groups in southwestern Arizona, and attempt to understand the broader causes of warfare. The result is an interesting and provocative study." -Journal of American History
