Like women being captured by hostile Comanches on the Texas frontier ~1840.

That's what it reminds me of - a very large scale Comanche raid. Murder for murder's sake. And rape and kidnapping.

Yep. The ‘Great Raid of 1840’.

If one is interested in a series straightforward accounts of Texas Indian attacks this is the book for you. It’s a period piece.
