And the President said to Kit Carson:
"Take my best four horsemen please
And ride out to the four directions,
Make my great lands barren for me"
Kit Carson said to the President
"You've made your offer sweet
I'll accept this task you've set for me
My fall's not yet complete"
Kit Carson knew he had a job to do
Like other jobs he had before
He'd made the grade
He learned to trade in famine, pestilence, and war
Kit Carson was a hero to some
With his poison and his flame
But somewhere there's a restless ghost
That used to bear his name
Song lyrics from Bruce Cockburn's song "Kit Carson" from "nothing but a burning light," 1991
More like Custer. "Where did all ............ come from?
I have read blood and thunder. A book about the taming of the west. Much revolved around Kit Carson. A must read imho to get the full scope of small scale regional war, forced starvation, etc.
A very very good read.
