| Abstract
|
:
|
"Examines the antecedents, course, and consequences of one of the most sustained, widespread, and bloody conflicts between Spaniards and Mescalero Apaches during the eighteenth century, challenging the standard claim that from 1790 to 1810 there was general peace along the northern frontier as both peoples reached a mutual accommodation as summarized in the maxim, 'a bad peace was better than a good war'"--
