XX [From the flaps of the dust jacket] A remarkable series of Spanish letters and reports on the early Comanches, found in old Mexican archives and here published for the first time. All text in English. These documents give an entirely new concept of the Comanches?who then had a highly developed, quasi-military organization under their own offcers. In this era they were invincible against other tribes, and the Spaniards found they honored all treaties?becoming valuable allies. Here are three reports by Pedro de Nava and one each by Jacobo Ugarte y Loyola, Fernando de la Concha, Joaquin Real Alencaster, and Alexo Garcia Conde, from the provinces of New and Texas. XX (ABOUT THE EDITOR) Dr. Marc Simmons has become?in a few years?one of New Mexico's recognized experts in the study of old Spanish documents relating to the Southwest, The reports and letters in this book were discovered by him while searching in the archives for material to be used in a later, comprehensive work on the Comanches. He translated and edited a previous Stagecoach Press book: INDIAN AND MISSION AFFAIRS IN NEW MEXICO, 1773, a report by Governor Fermin de Mendinueta.
