Indian War in the Pacific Northwest: The Journal of Lieutenant Lawrence KipThroughout the 1850s, Native peoples of the inland Northwest actively resisted white encroachments into their traditional territories. Tensions exploded in 1858 when nearly one thousand Palouses, Spokanes, and Coeur d'Alenes routed an invading force commanded by Colonel Edward Steptoe. In response, Colonel George Wright mounted a large expedition into the heart of the Columbia Plateau to punish and subdue its Native peoples. Opposing Wright's force

Throughout the 1850s, Native peoples of the inland Northwest actively resisted white encroachments into their traditional territories. Tensions exploded in 1858 when nearly one thousand Palouses, Spokanes, and Coeur d'Alenes routed an invading force commanded by Colonel Edward Steptoe. In response, Colonel George Wright mounted a large expedition into the heart of the Columbia Plateau to punish and subdue its Native peoples. Opposing Wright's force was a loose confederacy of tribes led by the famous warrior Kamiakin. Indian War in the Pacific Northwest is a vivid and valuable first-person account of that aggressive and bloody military campaign. Related by Lawrence Kip, a young lieutenant serving under Wright, it provides a rare glimpse of military operations and campaign life along the far western frontier before the Civil War. Replete with colorful prose and acute observations, his journal is also notable for its dramatic descriptions of clashes with Kamiakin's men and compelling portraits of leading figures on both sides of the Plateau Indian War. The new introduction provides the historical and cultural background and aftermath of the conflict, explores its effects on present-day Native peoples of the Columbia Plateau, and critically assesses Kip's observations and interpretations. Also included in this Bison Books edition are two Native accounts of the conflict by Kamiakin and Mary Moses.

Poor Quality for the Cost !!! Dissatisfied
Disappointed Durability. I love these heels they are very comfortable looks good with just about any color outfit . However, my heart ripped in pieces after 3 months with limited wear they began to lift and fall apart . I’m very dissatisfied with the cost & poor quality slippers I received. I wish I could actually returned it but couldn’t due to the 30 days return policy.

Steve Madden must have
Size: 7.5, Color: Black
You can’t go wrong with any Steve Madden shoe to be honest. These are sexy yet sturdy. Nice thin versatile heel. Strap length is good for any size ankle really

Very Good Item
Size: 8, Color: Gold
I recently purchased these Amazon Essentials gold flip-flops at the start of spring, hoping to find an affordable sandal for everyday wear. After wearing them consistently for a few weeks I’ve gotten a good sense of their overall quality and comfort. One of the biggest positives is their style. The gold color is simple making them easy to dress up or down. I’ve been able to pair them with everything from athletic wear to casual dresses, which makes them a great staple piece. They’re also very lightweight, which is perfect for warmer weather or packing for trips. However, there are a few areas that could be improved. While they are comfortable at first, they don’t provide much arch support, which can make longer walks a bit uncomfortable. After wearing them for extended periods, I noticed some slight soreness in my feet. Softer, more flexible straps from the start would also improve comfort right out of the box. For shoppers, I would recommend these flip-flops if you’re looking for a stylish, budget friendly option for light use rather than something for long distance walking. Overall, I’m happy with this purchase. These flip-flops are a great option for casual wear and offer good value for the price, as long as you know their limitations.

They fit true to size and have excellent traction, making them feel very secure and slip-resistant.
Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: Black White Snake Print
I would buy these sandals in every color. The sole is very sturdy and supportive, not flimsy at all, which makes them super comfortable for all-day wear. The thong strap is soft and doesn’t rub or hurt between my toes like some sandals do. They fit true to size and have excellent traction, making them feel very secure and slip-resistant while walking. Overall, these are stylish, comfortable, and surprisingly well-made for everyday use.

Pleasantly surprised by these nice flip flops
Size: 8 Wide, Color: Dusty Rose
I was pleasantly surprised by these flip flops. I wear an 8 in womens and they fit perfectly. I also have pretty wide feet and ordered a wide size and they fit perfectly that way too. They seem durable, are comfortable and wear nicely but I am disappointed that they already have 2 small spots where the material is wearing already. I will say I wear these a lot, nearly every day for a few hours at least, sometimes more, so maybe that's why they have the 2 spots of wear already. Overall I'm happy with these!
