Review
"In place of the distorted image of Geronimo as a bloodthirsty savage, she offers her vision of a man full of energy and drive, fiercely independent, possessed of great business acumen and interested in everything... Debo's book is the most detailed, thorough, well-written and stimulating account of Geronimo's life and circumstances" Journal of American History "This book vividly illustrates the paradoxical elements of the Apache wars and the capricious nature of Indian policy during a period of 50 years. It is also rich in character, doing full justice to the striking cast of Apache leaders: Cochise, Mangas Coloradas, Victorio and Geronimo himself" Washington Post
