ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
“Blood and Thunder” by Hampton Sides is a historical narrative that explores the life of Kit Carson and his role in the American West during the 19th century. The book delves into the violent expansion of the United States, focusing on Carson's involvement in key military campaigns against Native American tribes, particularly the Navajo. It examines themes of Manifest Destiny, the clash of cultures, and the moral complexities of westward expansion. Through Carson's life, the book reflects on the enduring myths of the frontier and the devastating impact of colonization on indigenous peoples.
