Description
The Apache Wars: The Hunt for Geronimo, the Apache Kid, and the Captive Boy Who Started the Longest War in American History by Paul Andrew Hutton. This sweeping historical account spans over two decades of the last war for the West, from 1861 to 1890. It is a story of men and women who lived through one of the most violent periods in American history, including Apache leaders Mangas Coloradas, Cochise, and Victorio, soldiers Kit Carson and George Crook, scouts Al Sieber and Tom Jeffords, and fierce warriors Geronimo and the Apache Kid. At its centre is the complex figure of Mickey Free, a mixed-blood warrior who moved uneasily between the worlds of the Apaches and American soldiers. His kidnapping in 1877 started the longest war in American history, and both sides blamed him for it. Through his story, Paul Hutton unfolds the intricate web of alliances and rivalries that shaped the violent history of the deserts and mountains of the Southwestern borderlands.
