The Unbroken

Episode 8 of Brandon Seale's podcast on the Lipan Apaches.Pressed on all sides by European and native rivals, the Lipanes never should have survived into the nineteenth century. Yet not only had they survived, they had done so with their numbers and their range undiminished. They were wealthier than ever, and more powerful too, and would play a vital role in driving the Spanish out of Texas for good.Selected BibliographyAlonso, Gorka. Apachería.Anderson, Gary Clayton.
