App Description

The Quanah Parker app contains an array of historical texts and images that tell the remarkable stories of Quanah Parker, the last and greatest Comanche Chief, and his mother, Cynthia Ann, an Anglo woman who was kidnapped not once, but twice in her lifetime. Also contained in this eclectic digital library is the compelling history of the Comanches. Travel back in time to learn what frontier life was like in the Texas Panhandle and the Southern Plains and learn how the Comanches managed to hold their own in a war against settlement that spanned well over four decades. The stories of Quanah Parker, Cynthia Ann Parker, and the rise and fall of what was once the most powerful Indian nation in American history make the truth much, much stranger than fiction.
