Into the Breach, Today in the History of..., and Oscar Wilde

Into the Breach:

So, first post of this blog and I am going to start with two things that will hopefully become a regular thing.

Today in the History of...

In this segment of our program I will randomly receive a topic and look up the history of it on this day (if there is any). So today in the history of peace treaties: The Treaty of July 27 was signed between the United States of American and the Native American tribes of the Apache, the Kiowa, and the Camanche.

The treaty itself is concerned with the three tribes previously mentioned living around the area south of the Arkansas River and trying to promote peaceful relations between the United States, the Native Americans and the peaceful relations among the Native American tribes themselves.

Further articles in the Treaty also give the United States the right to build roads through the tribes's territory.

The content of the treaty can be found here

Oscar Wilde:
Finally in our program I'm announcing what book I'm reading: The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde.
