I need to find Willbarger's book again, if only to tally up a body count, so exaustive and valuable today is his collection of accounts.
Was it Willbarger's own father who was scalped by Comanches, eventually dying from the exposed skull left by the wound more'n ten years later?
Surely a lot of suffering in that interval.
