Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Recollections of John Johnston
Those who follow the history of one nation in its relations with its subject races, will read the following narrative with interest. In his official position, as guardian to the ignorant and savage wards of the United States Government, John Johnston saw that the difficulties which he was constantly endeavoring to adjust, were only the beginnings of a long series of blunders, whose end is not even yet. If, in 1835 - 40, the United States had taken the advice, as expressed on page 18, and used it as a precedent for future action, General Grant's grave accusation against his country in 1868 would not have been needed.
