Geronimo

"An overview of the ... history of Apache chief Geronimo, with a look at the timeless strategies we can learn from his life, from ... football coach Mike Leach"--

"Through the stories of the elders, he also learned how this way of life had changed since their capture, as many of the traditional ways of the Chiricahuas were altered or lost in the ensuing decades after Geronimo's people surrendered to the U.S. Army in 1886. Decades of incarceration followed - first in Florida, then in Alabama, and finally in Oklahoma. More than half died in hot, humid prison camps because the Chiricahuas had no inborn resistance to the virulent diseases brought to North America by Europeans. Then in 1913, with fewer than three hundred left, the Chiricahuas were released and received land allotments near their last prison site, Fort Sill, or on the Mescalero Apache Reservation where Ove arrived thirty-five years later."--BOOK JACKET.

Based on fresh evidence - including depositions from old soldiers and scouts, official documents, articles, letters and photographs - this study examines the campaign that the US Army waged against the Apache tribe, led by its great chieftain Geronimo, and assesses the outcome of the bloodshed.

Little Foot, the grandson of the great warrior and spiritual leader Geronimo, looks back on Geronimo's last days before his surrender. Geronimo stood against the U.S. government for many years and has many physical scars to show from his battles. After his final surrender, his Chiricahua Apaches are herded onto a crowded train and taken from their home in Arizona to Florida.

When Geronimo and his warriors surrendered to the U.S. Army, General Miles made a number of promises for the surrender terms that were in fact false. Geromino: Prisoner of Lies provides insights into how Chiricahua prisoners of war lived while held in captivity by the United States Army in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries as seen through the eyes of their war leader Geronimo. The indignities and lies they suffered, and how they maintained their tribal culture in the face of great pressure to change or vanish entirely, are brought to life and provided new context through this book.
