- Synopsis
- Apache warrior Geronimo led one of the last major independent Indian uprisings, and personified the struggle of Native Americans during westward expansion. Aimed at high school and undergraduate students, this biography provides an account of Geronimo's life from his traditional Apache upbringing to his final days as a celebrity prisoner of war, within the context of key historical and cultural events of his lifetime, including Native American traditions. The biography draws on primary sources such as Geronimo's autobiography and contemporary newspaper accounts, and is illustrated with b&w historical photos. A timeline and a glossary are also included. Stout is a librarian at Pima Community College in Tucson. She has published six books on Native American tribes.
