"This is the most important pre-reservation document that we have for the Comanche language . . . It should be in every university research library." —James A. Goss, Professor of Anthropology, Texas Tech University

The Comanche Vocabulary collected in Mexico during the years 1861–1864 by Manuel García Rejón is by far the most extensive Comanche word list compiled before the establishment of the Kiowa-Comanche-Apache Reservation in 1867. It preserves words and concepts that have since changed or even disappeared from the language, thus offering a unique historical window on earlier Comanche culture.
