It's been several years since I read one of his. I can only recall massacres right now, though. It seems like the whites like to shoot them and then be done with it. I do remember one section describing Washington marching through ordering a scorched earth policy that probably led to long, drawn out deaths due to starvation. I think the next book I read will be the fifth in his Winning of America series. Great stuff!
