There is something perverse about more than enough. When we have more, it is never enough. It is always somewhere out there, just out of reach. The more we acquire, the more elusive enough becomes. –Unknown

Books I’ve Known and Loved / Anything by Robert Utley
The West was no simple place. Robert Utley gets that. Soldier/Indian relations varied depending on the Indian and the soldier. Pride, love and ego, not to mention military orders, pressure from the East and teenaged warriors run amok made for complications and tragedy. Utley writes about the West like no other.
Check out A Life Wild and Perilous and his great biography of Geronimo too.
