Warning: The details in this book can get pretty explicit. Mr. Lehmann’s matter of fact recounting of the brutal tactics of the Apaches is eye opening. To think that his story, taking place in the 1870s and beyond, is happening at the same time as the history we’ve been taught is amazing. Such a stark difference in existence. Of course I’m not completely unaware of the plight of Native Americans, but this is the first narratives of this type that I’ve read. Much more compelling than detached history books and overly dramatized “documentaries.”
