Reader recommendation: Empire of the Summer Moon
Loading...
The focus of S.C. Gwynne鈥檚 superbly written Empire of the Summer Moon is the great Comanche chief Quanah Parker and the life of his mother, Cynthia Ann (Audah) Parker, a white woman. Equally fascinating is the book鈥檚 history of the Southwest and the Comanches鈥 long resistance to Western settlers and the Texas Rangers.
