In 1883 General George Crook led soldiers and Apache scouts deep into Mexico’s Sierra Madre after the Chiricahua Apaches. His aide, Captain Bourke, describes the march from Arizona through Sonora, the rugged mountains, camp life, the scouts and the meeting with the hostile bands.
A first-hand account by a perceptive soldier-ethnologist; its view of the Apaches is that of an 1880s army officer. Download the free EPUB.
