Anytime!

It all began when I stopped over for a ‘quick visit’ to Little Bighorn and I ended up buying about 4 or 5 books about the Little Bighorn.

Then I journeyed to historical accounts of the Plains Indians - specifically the Sioux & Cheyenne.

Being from Texas, I progressed to books about the Comanches and a few other local tribes.

Since then I’ve gone to journals & historical accounts from the Spaniards expeditions into Texas & New Mexico - including the Narrative of Cabeza de Vaca.

Currently I’m engrossed into the historical accounts of LaSalle and the Spaniards obsession with finding his settlement. In this story there is an encyclopedic coverage of the Native Americans tribes who were encountered, including their customs & habits.

Lots more books that cover a myriad of side stories.

I already have on standby for my future reading, “The De Soto Chronicles” which is about 1000 pages in length dealing with that Spaniards exploits in the Southern U.S.
