Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Apache Campaign in the Sierra Madre: An Account of the Expedition in Pursuit of the Hostile Chiricahua Apaches in the Spring of 1883 There is this difference to be noted, however of the one hundred and twenty-five (125) fight ing men brought back from the Sierra Madre, less than one-third have engaged in the present hostilities, from which fact an additional infer ence may be drawn both of the difficulties to be overcome in the repression of these distur bances and of the horrors which would surely have accumulated upon the heads of our citi zens had the whole fighting force of this fierce band taken to the mountains.

Excerpt: ... camping-place, at the junction of two wellwatered canons, near which grew pine, oak, and cedar in plenty, and an abundance of rich, juicy grasses. The Apache scouts sent up a second smoke signal, promptly responded to from a neighboring butte. A couple of minutes after two squaws were seen threading their way down through the timber and rocks and yelling with full voice. They were the sisters of T6-klani (Plenty Water), one of the scouts. They said that they had lost heavily in the fight, and that while endeavoring to escape over the rocks and ravines and through the timber the fire of the scouts had played havoc among them. They fully confirmed all that the captives had said about Charlie McComas. Two hours had scarcely passed when six other women had come in, approaching the pickets two and two, and waving white rags. One of these, the sister of "Chihuahua "--a prominent man among the Chiricahuas--said that her brother wanted to come in, and was trying to gather up his band, which had scattered like sheep after the fight; he might be looked for in our camp at any moment. On the 18th (May, 1883), before 8.30 A. M., six new arrivals were reported--four squaws, one buck and a boy. Close upon their heels followed sixteen others--men, women, and young children. In this band was "Chihuahua" himself, a fine-looking man, whose countenance betokened great decision and courage. This chief expressed to General Crook his earnest desire for peace, and acknowledged that all the Chiricahuas could hope to do in the future would be to prolong the contest a few weeks and defer their destruction. He was tired of fighting. His village had been destroyed and all his property was in our hands. He wished to surrender his band just as soon as he could gather...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geronimo was one of the most notable warriors of the Apache people. He led numerous raids as well as resistance to United States and Mexican military campaigns in the northern Mexico states of Chihuahua and Sonora, and in the southwestern American territories of New Mexico and Arizona. Unwilling to be confined to the reservations that they had been put in, Geronimo and his fellow Chiricahua Apaches broke out from their constraints and fled south towards the Mexican border. And so in 1883 Geronimo was on the warpath again. But this time he met his fighting match in General George Crook. Captain John Bourke was an aide to General Crook and so therefore had the opportunity to witness and record every action that was made throughout the campaign. Yet, this is not merely the account of a military campaign against rebellious Native Americans as Bourke also provides a sympathetic overview of the culture and customs of the Chirichua Apaches. "Bourke was a meticulous observer as well as a superb and engrossingly interesting writer. He would also colour his material with lyrical and poetical observations upon the natural world, including the landscape and the weather, and also with copies of such official correspondence he deemed important such as orders, rosters, newspaper clippings and his own drawings to accompany his texts. Furthermore it would all be laced with his descriptions - sometimes with humour - of characters, military, civilian and Indians met along the way." The English Westerners' Society John Gregory Bourke was a captain in the United States Army who was awarded the Medal of Honor for his services during the American Civil War. After he had completed fifteen years of duty in the American Indian Wars he became a prolific author, writing a number of accounts about his time in the army as well as ethnographical studies of the American West. An Apache Campaign in the Sierra Madre was first published in 1886 and Bourke passed away in 1896.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the compass of this volume it is impossible to furnish a complete dissertation upon the Apache Indians or the causes which led up to the expedition about to be described. The object is simply to outline some of the difficulties attending the solution of the Indian question in the South-west and to make known the methods employed in conducting campaigns against savages in hostility. It is thought that the object desired can best be accomplished by submitting an unmutilated extract from the journal carefully kept during the whole period involved. Much has necessarily been excluded, but without exception it has been to avoid repetition, or else to escape the introduction of information bearing upon the language, the religion, marriages, funeral ceremonies, etc., of this interesting race, which would increase the bulk of the manuscript, and, perhaps, detract from its value in the eyes of the general reader. Ethnologically the Apache is classed with the Tinneh tribes, living close to the Yukon and Mackenzie rivers, within the Arctic circle. For centuries he has been preëminent over the more peaceful nations about him for courage, skill, and daring in war; cunning in deceiving and evading his enemies; ferocity in attack when skilfully-planned ambuscades have led an unwary foe into his clutches; cruelty and brutality to captives; patient endurance and fortitude under the greatest privations. In peace he has commanded respect for keen-sighted intelligence, good fellowship, warmth of feeling for his friends, and impatience of wrong.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of his military career, George Crook developed empathy and admiration for American Indians both as foes and as allies. As Paul Magid has demonstrated in the previous two volumes of his groundbreaking biography, this experience prepared Crook well for his metamorphosis from Indian fighter to outspoken advocate of Indian rights. An Honest Enemy is the third and final volume of Magid’s account of George Crook’s life and involvement in the Indian wars. Using rarely tapped information, including Crook’s own diaries, the work documents in dramatic detail the general’s arduous and dangerous campaigns against the Chiricahua Apaches and their leader Geronimo, action that forms a backdrop to the transformation in the general’s role vis-à-vis Native Americans. In a story by turns harrowing and tragic, Magid details the plight of Indians who, in the aftermath of their defeat, were consigned to reservations too barren to sustain them, where they were subjected to impoverishment, indifference, and in many cases, outright corruption. With growing anger, Crook watched as many tribes faced death from starvation and disease and, unwilling to passively accept their fate, desperately sought to flee their reservations and return to their homelands. Charged with the grim task of returning the Indians to such conditions, Crook was forced to choose between fulfilling his duties as a soldier and his humanitarian values. Magid describes Crook’s struggle to reconcile these conflicting concerns while promoting policies he regarded as essential to the welfare of the Indians in the face of a hostile public, jealous fellow officers, and an unsympathetic government that regarded his efforts as quixotic and misguided. Here is a tale that readers will not soon forget.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Captain John G. Bourke was one of the preeminent scholars of Native-American life in the 19th century. He was a soldier, a Medal of Honor recipient, an ethnographer, aide to General George Crook, and a friend of Indians. Like Crook, Bourke was outspoken and felt the "system" set up to deal with native peoples was not much of a system at all.Yet like most of his contemporaries in the military, he was an instrument of the policy he felt was broken. In this lively and fascinating account of the pursuit of Geronimo and others in 1883, Bourke drew on his diary of the campaign.Bourke has long been cited as a source on Native-American studies and none other than Sigmund Freud wrote the preface for the 1913 edition of Bourke's "Scatalogic Rites of All Nations."A prolific writer, Bourke died a young man but left an astonishing legacy of scholarship.Every memoir of the American West provides us with another view of the movement that changed the country forever.

Download or read book An Apache Life-Way written by Morris Edward Opler and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-05 with total page 910 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A majority of ethnographer Morris Edward Opler’s research was done on Native American groups of the American Southwest. He studied specifically the Chiricahua Indians, who were the subjects of one of his most famous books, An Apache Life-Way: The Economic, Social, and Religious Institutions of the Chiricahua Indians. Opler studied many Native American groups, but the Apache were a main focus of his. An Apache Life-Way traces the life of an Apache year by year. Rather than a history, the book explains the day-to-day Apache experience, detailing the chronological order of one’s life. The lifestyle described in the book is from a time before the Americans started the long era of hostile interactions with the Apache. The people designated as “Apache” in this book are those who spoke the Apache language in the area that is now New Mexico, Arizona, Sonora, and Chihuahua. There were many smaller sub-groups that populated these areas, three of them different groups of the Chiricahua Apache. An Apache Life-Way is divided into several main parts: Childhood; Maturation; Social Relations of Adults; Folk Beliefs, Medical Practice, and Shamanism; Maintenance of the Household; Marital and Sexual Life; The Round of Life; Political Organization and Status; and Death, Mourning, and the Underworld. Each section is divided into more specific subcategories that explore each phase of life and the rituals associated with it. Originally published in 1941, An Apache Life-Way remains one of the most important and innovative studies of south-western Native Americans. “First-class...in the best ethnographic tradition. It fills a great gap in our anthropological knowledge and...deserves to be one of the most used of American tribal records.”—Ruth Benedict, author of Patterns of Culture
