When we were old enough to be of real service we went to the field with our parents: not to play, but to toil. When the crops were to be planted we broke the ground with wooden hoes. We planted the corn in straight rows, the beans among the corn, and the melons and pumpkins in irregular order over the field. We cultivated these crops as there was need.

Geronimo tells us the story of his life and the history of his people. One of the most heartbreaking books I have ever read. The way the US government lied to him; really makes you wonder why there has not been more of a movement to reclaim land that was blatantly stolen before the ink could even dr
Excellent insight into the life and times of Geronimo, the Apache chieftan. The introduction is written in 1906, seven years after Geronimo's death. The book largely consists of Geronimo's own words as he narrated his life story to the author. The author adds historical context as well as some edito
A surprising account whose highlight is Geronimo's early childhood -- told with such enchantment, you're transported to an idyllic ancient age when our ancestors roamed the pristine earth, just and true... sigh.
Rated 3 stars because the narrative's bulk is repetitive and boring : shoot-Mexicans-and-
