War and the Southwest Series
The University of North Texas Press has undertaken to publish a series of significant books about War and the Southwest. This broad category includes first-hand accounts of military experiences by men and women of the Southwest, histories of warfare involving the people of the Southwest, and analyses of military life in the Southwest itself. The Southwest is defined loosely as those states of the United States west of the Mississippi River and south of a line from San Francisco to St. Louis as well as the borderlands straddling the Mexico-United States boundary. The series will include works involving military life in peacetime in addition to books on warfare itself. It will range chronologically from the first contact between indigenous tribes and Europeans to the present. The series is based on the belief that warfare is an important if unfortunate fact of life in human history and that understanding war is a requirement for a full understanding of the American past.

Dedication
This series of sketches is dedicated to my beloved wife, Maggie,
the one who persuaded me to write them up after all these years.
She did so even though the sketches tell about events that occurred
a couple of years before the two of us even met. Moreover, she knew
full well that the tedious task of typing the manuscript would devolve
upon her.
