Sherry Robinson's excellent biography of James S. Calhoun is an important book on a key figure, providing an insightful and engaging account of his life and career. She shows how his political experiences in Georgia as well as his participation in the Mexican War informed his relations with New Mexico's Indians, nuevomexicanos, and territorial military commanders.--David V.
