<div>This book challenges long-accepted historical orthodoxy about relations between the Spanish and the Indians in the borderlands separating what are now Mexico and the United States. While most scholars describe the decades after 1790 as a period of relative peace between the occupying Spaniards and the Apaches, Mark Santiago sees in the Mescalero Apache attacks on the Spanish beginning in 1795 a sustained, widespread, and bloody conflict. He argues that Commandant General Pedro de Nava's coordinated campaigns against the Mescaleros were the culmination of the Spanish military's efforts to contain Apache aggression, constituting one of its largest and most sustained operations in northern New Spain. A Bad Peace and a Good War examines the antecedents, tactics, and consequences of the fighting. This conflict occurred immediately after the Spanish military had succeeded in making an uneasy peace with portions of all Apache groups. The Mescaleros were the first to break the peace, annihilating two Spanish patrols in August 1795. Galvanized by the loss, Commandant General Nava struggled to determine the extent to which Mescaleros residing in "peace establishments" outside Spanish settlements near El Paso, San Elizario, and Presidio del Norte were involved. Santiago looks at the impact of conflicting Spanish military strategies and increasing demands for fiscal efficiency as a result of Spain's imperial entanglements. He examines Nava's yearly invasions of Mescalero territory, his divide-and-rule policy using other Apaches to attack the Mescaleros, and his deportation of prisoners from the frontier, preventing the Mescaleros from redeeming their kin. Santiago concludes that the consequences of this war were overwhelmingly negative for Mescaleros and ambiguous for Spaniards. The war's legacy of bitterness lasted far beyond the end of Spanish rule, and the continued independence of so many Mescaleros and other Apaches in their homeland proved the limits of Spanish military authority. In the words of Viceroy Bernardo de Gálvez, the Spaniards had technically won a "good war" against the Mescaleros and went on to manage a "bad peace." &nbsp;</div>

The Sound of a Writer's Voice: Both a Window and a Mirror

Each piece of writing we consume as readers is, in some form or another, an expression of a writer's voice, a glimpse into his psyche, mindset, and ideals. Through the lens of his words he grants us permission to view the world briefly through his eyes. The pieces contained within these pages are a truer representation of the author than you will find in most books. A compilation of thirty years of work, recorded by hand in a writing journal, Santiago's reflections are presented here raw and unedited, flowing in an intimate stream of consciousness from his heart to the page. These entries are a chronological accumulation of mostly independent unities throughout the course of one life--personal observations, insights, commentary, reflections, and brief narratives. They voice our common struggle to find meaning and value in the great mystery that is life and the universe as we exist within it, both of which are full of wonder and violence and beauty on a scale that is hard to fathom. All proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated by the author to the following charitable organizations: Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (founded in 1977 by David Sheldrick) Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund (initiated as Karisoke in 1969) Rainforest Trust (officially incorporated on Dec. 8, 1988)

Each piece of writing we consume as readers is, in some form or another, an expression of a writer's voice, a glimpse into their psyche, mindset, and ideals. Through the lens of their words, they grant us permission to view the world briefly through their eyes. And through the reflection of a writer's work, we also see ourselves. The writer's personal observations, insights, commentary, and narratives call us to look within-for introspection, for endless curiosity, for grief and despair, for profound joy in the everyday, and for peace. May this second volume of The Sound of a Writer's Voice continue to help you in finding your own.
