Did not finish book.
Racist as hell. 

The author chooses to use very different narrative techniques and language to depict how each side treated prisoners. Guess which side got what kind of treatment? 

The author also says shit like barbarian and stone age and primitive about the Comanches. The story sounded interesting but these choices make it clear that the author cannot be trusted to relay history accurately.
