Special Report on Washita Battlefield, Oklahoma

Brown WE. 1964. Special Report on Washita Battlefield, Oklahoma. National Survey of Historic Sites and Buildings. National Park Service. Santa Fe, NM

The contribution of this report should be to fit the Battle of the Washita into a larger context - by considering its causes and consequences to show that it was a turning point in the history of the Indian Wars and that it resulted in a fundamental, even if futile and short-lived, change in the Nation's Indian policy.
