Summary

This volume explores the history of the Apache Wars of the late 19th century Southwest through diaries, army reports, and other primary sources. Stretching from the Colorado River to the mountains east of the Rio Grande, and from northern Arizona into Sonora, Mexico, is the sprawling region once known as Apacheria. By the time the first Americans ventured into the region, the indigenous peoples known as the Apache had already been clashing with Spanish and Mexican interlopers for some time.   Eyewitnesses to the Indian Wars, 1865–1890: The Struggle for Apacheria presents a selection of outstanding original accounts pertaining to the epic struggle between American and the Apache for those coveted lands. It is the first in a five-volume series telling the saga of the military struggle for the American West in the words of the soldiers, noncombatants, and Native Americans who shaped it

    A testament to the way of solitude and simplicity, the 21 precepts of the Dokkōdō, also known as The Way of Walking Alone, is one of Musashi's principal legacies. Inspired by his life of combat and the bushido code, Miyamoto Musashi wrote the Dokkōdō in Japan in 1645, to pass on his wisdom and philosophy of life before he died. In the short text, the master duelist shares 21 precepts for healthy living. They are influenced by principles akin to Stoicism. Even today, these universal lessons can be useful for leading an honest and happy life. 
Among the main themes he addresses in the Dokkōdō, Miyamoto Musashi stresses the importance of simplicity, discipline and detachment. He suggests forgetting material desires and distractions and concentrating on the essential. He advocates not only material simplicity, but also mental, spiritual simplicity; purity of thought. In his vision, mental clarity enables deeper self-mastery.
