During the Civil War many young Lumbee Indians of North Carolina hid in the swamps to avoid conscription into Confederate labor battalions and carried on a running guerilla war. \u003cem\u003eTo Die Game\u003c\/em\u003e is the story of Henry Berry Lowry, a Lumbee who was arrested for killing a Confederate official. While awaiting trial, he escaped and took to the swamps with a band of supporters. The Lowry band became as notorious as their contemporaries Jesse and Frank James, as they terrorized bush-whacked leaders of possses and military companies. For more than five years, with the support of local Indians and Negroes, they eluded capture. In 1872, Henry disappeared and some of his other followers were eventually hunted down and killed by bounty hunters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11822808\"\u003eWilliam Evans\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Syracuse University Publications in Continuin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.54h x 5.60w x 0.87d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780815603597\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0815603592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS036050\"\u003eUnited States | Civil War Period (1850-1877)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWilliam McKee Evans\u003c\/b\u003e, emeritus professor of history at California State Polytechnic University and the author of the prize-winning \u003ci\u003eBallots and Fence Rails: Reconstruction on the Lower Cape Fear\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Syracuse University Publications in Continuin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42680573755629,"sku":"9780815603597","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_67ea282a-0b2f-4ea7-97bb-7c87ca8ad7a2.jpg?v=1649696399","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/to-die-game-the-story-of-the-lowry-band-indian-guerillas-of-reconstruction-9780815603597","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
