Settle and Conquer: Militarism on the American Frontier, 1607-1890
Matthew J. Flynn
This rereading of the history of American westward expansion examines the destruction of Native American cultures as a successful campaign of “counterinsurgency”. Paramilitary figures such as Daniel Boone “opened the West” and frontiersmen infiltrated the enemy. The success of this war of attrition was unparalleled but ultimately saw the victors question the morality of their own actions.
