| + | **Reply: The kicker is that while yes, Native Americans had fought in battles since about the beginning of the war, the hook (at least intended to) claims that it was on both sides. The parts of the book I saw doesn't seem to indicate against this. Research of my own has suggested the Battle of Round Mountain may have seen action on both sides, so I'll need to research that more. The newspaper quoted is one of the regional issues from the Newtonia area, newspapers in southwestern Missouri are going to be inherently low-circulation.
