| Summary: | "Far more than an account of Comanche's celebrated life and museum existence, Elizabeth Atwood Lawrence's penetrating study provides insights into cavalry life from the perspective of the horses and explores the relationships between cavalrymen and their mounts. She illuminates Comanche's significance through an analysis of the many symbolic roles he has assumed at different times and for various groups of people, and reveals much about the way symbols operate in human thought and the manner in which legends develop"--Back cover. |
