Inhaltsangabe:

Old Fort Davis is a historical non-fiction book written by Barry Scobee. The book is a comprehensive account of the history and significance of Fort Davis, a military post located in the rugged terrain of West Texas. The fort was established in 1854 and played a crucial role in the protection of settlers, mail, and trade routes during the Indian Wars. The book explores the daily life of soldiers stationed at the fort, the challenges they faced, and the impact they had on the region. It also delves into the interactions between the military and the Native American tribes, including the Apache and Comanche. Scobee provides a detailed description of the fort's construction, layout, and architecture, as well as the various buildings that made up the fort. He also examines the social and cultural aspects of life at the fort, including the role of women and African Americans. The book includes numerous photographs, maps, and illustrations that help bring the history of the fort to life. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the American West, military history, or the interactions between Native Americans and European settlers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
