American Indian Victories--front coverAs many of you know by now, I finally got up the courage to put together a book on demand made up of about twenty of my scenarios where the American Indians do somewhat better than they did historically when they encountered Europeans. If you’ve been reading my newsletters regularly you'll recognize a lot of the best scenarios from them, along with a lot of  scenarios that are new to you.

I did do a lot fact-checking, grammar checking, and editing. I found that I could usually reduce the word count on a scenario by about ten percent without losing information, and the result was usually clearer than the original.  I also tried to make the scenarios flow together effectively, removing duplications and referring to other scenarios to provide context. I think that the result is a pretty good book. I’m happy with it.

I did the design for the front cover myself. It was my attempt to use Adobe Illustrator and I think it turned out fairly well. Of course I’m a tad biased. As you may have figured out, I am proud and excited about this, and I could write twenty pages about it. I won’t though. I’ll just give you a brief overview of what is in it and how to order it if you don’t already have that information.

The book is all scenarios. It doesn’t include any of the Indian AH fiction that I’ve done. I was originally going to put “Ruins of New England” in it, but I started looking over the story and realized that I could probably go back and rewrite it to make a much stronger story. I didn’t want to get bogged down doing that, so I just left it out.

I went back and skimmed through the book, trying to view it with a relatively unbiased eye. There are some strong scenarios in there.  If you like the American Indian parts of the Newsletter, you'll enjoy the book.

It is available through Amazon.com.  You can also special-order it through most local bookstores. You’ll probably need the ISBN, which is 1-59113-179-0. It’s a trade paperback, 208 pages long, and costs $15.95.

Edit (January 2012): As of January 2012 I have a limited supply of these books available at retail plus shipping and handling. If you have trouble getting it through the bookstores, feel free to email me at DaleCoz at Aol dot com and you may be able to get it that way.  Note the limited supply part of this.  When they're gone they're gone.

In any case, I think this ended up being a pretty good book. If you like what you’ve seen in my AH Newsletters, check it out.
