Book excerpt: Nasdijj was born in 1950s America to migrant parents-a white cowboy father and a tenderhearted Navajo mother. Surviving the brutal conditions of migrant camps in Texas, Florida, Oklahoma, and North Carolina, Nasdijj and his little brother, Tso, raced trains and found sanctuary in Navajo stories they had heard at bedtime, whispered tales about Spider Woman, Sa, Geronimo, and Coyote. After their mother's tragic death from alcohol, the young brothers were left in the care of their sometimes indifferent, often abusive, occasionally loving father. Rarely in school, the boys picked cotton, tomatoes, potatoes, apples, peaches, beans, and artichokes. Eventually, to escape this indentured servitude, Nasdijj and Tso stole a car and ran away. Told in brilliant flashes of poetry, narrative, and song, Geronimo's Bones reveals a world that to this day remains hidden from most Americans. But Nasdijj's work derives its special power from his ability to capture the universal emotions that we all share: hate and love, loss and remembrance. Book jacket.

Book excerpt: On February 17,1909 in the dark heart of winter, the great Apache leader, Geronimo, dies of pneumonia after spending 23 years as a prisoner of war of the United States. His death makes front-page news in the New York Times. Days later, a young Marine recovering from battle wounds in Cuba, learns about Geronimo¿s death. He is known to the Marine Forces Command as Corporal Frank Kidd but his real name is Chaco, and he is Geronimo¿s nephew. Orphaned at birth, Chaco was toughened by the cruelties of the white man¿s Indian school, and hardened by three years of guerrilla warfare in the 1906 Cuban Pacification Campaign. Now, he is at the end of his enlistment and returns to Fort Sill¿s Apache POW camp where he plans to take his adoptive mother and sister west to freedom. Yet upon his return, long held secrets are revealed: Chaco is not Geronimo¿s nephew, but, in fact, the old warrior¿s last son. And his father¿s final wish was that he be buried `in the country that knows my name¿. To fulfill this dying wish, Chaco must first free his sister from a brothel in the nearby township of Lawton, and dig up Geronimo¿s bones.The escape plan goes awry, and in freeing his sister, two white men end up dead. Once an honored hero, now a hunted outlaw, he and his sister race west in a stolen motor car in a desperate bid for freedom. As the last free Apache, he must pay the price of new won freedom with blood, in one of the largest unrecorded manhunts of the 20th century.

Book excerpt: Welcome to a Steampunk wild west starring Doc Holliday, with zombies, dinosaurs, robots, and cowboys. The time is April, 1885. Doc Holliday lies in bed in a sanitarium in Leadville, Colorado, expecting never to leave his room again. But the medicine man and great chief Geronimo needs him for one last adventure. Renegade Comanche medicine men object to the newly-signed treaty with Theodore Roosevelt. They are venting their displeasure on two white men who are desecrating tribal territory in Wyoming. Geronimo must protect the men or renege on his agreement with Roosevelt. He offers Doc one year of restored health in exchange for taking on this mission. Welcome to the birth of American paleontology, spearheaded by two brilliant men, Edward Drinker Cope and Othniel Charles Marsh, two men whose genius is only exceeded by their hatred for each other's guts. Now, with the aid of Theodore Roosevelt, Cole Younger, and Buffalo Bill Cody, Doc Holliday must save Cope and Marsh not only from the Comanches, not only from living, breathing dinosaurs, but from each other. And that won't be easy.

This book was released on 2014-10-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geronimo, the terrorist, the red devil, occult leader of savages, akin to bin Laden, or freedom fighter? These are the dissonant images ascribed to Geronimo in our conflicted national psyche. Geronimo, the name paratroopers shouted as they jumped while training for warfare. Geronimo, who would call on the gods to delay the onset of daylight, assuring stealth and health for those under his care. Geronimo, who bedeviled armies, who effectively resisted conquest, was, and remains, a devil to some, an enigma to many, and a beacon to others. Many of the books written about Geronimo, describe his mythological capacity to elude and escape capture. He has been depicted as having supernatural powers that protected him from harm. He has also been described as a cruel, obsessed warrior and leader of savages who preyed on innocent settlers. Geronimo, also serves as a powerful symbol that allows us to justify a history of demonization of Native Americans, as savage, backward, human beings, culturally responsible for their own fate and circumstance. This book is an attempt to view the man and his exploits in a broader context of understanding, and understanding his continuing impact on world affairs. "For several years there have been persistent rumors that Prescott Bush, President George Bush's grandfather desecrated Geronimo's tomb. He allegedly broke into Geronimo's grave, stole his skull and other artifacts and took them to the Skull and Bones Headquarters at Yale, where he was a member of Skull & Bones, as were President George Herbert Walker Bush and his son President G.W. Bush. New evidence uncovered in 2006 by Yale researcher Marc Wortman, lends even more credence to, and continues to amplify those rumors..."..Our culture and country were born of rebellion, we honor the rebel, we even embrace the rebel without a cause. This then is the story of America. This is the story of a rebel with a cause. The cause is what this story is about! America don't you know me; I'm your native son."

Download or read book In Geronimo's Footsteps written by Corine Sombrun and published by Arcade. This book was released on 2014-11-11 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The name "Geronimo" came to Corine Sombrun insistently in a trance during her apprenticeship to a Mongolian shaman. That message and the need to understand its meaning brought her to the home of the legendary Apache leader's great-grandson, Harlyn Geronimo, himself a medicine man on the Mescalero Apache reservation in New Mexico. Together, the two of them—the French seeker and the Native American healer—would make a pilgrimage that retraced Geronimo's life while following the course of the Gila River to the place of his birth, at its source. Told in the alternating voices of its authors, In Geronimo's Footsteps is the record of that journey. At its core is an account of Geronimo's life, from his earliest days in a Chiricahua Apache family and his path as a warrior and chief to his surrender and the years spent in exile until his death, at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Recounted by his great-grandson, his story is steeped in family history and Apache lore to create a portrait of a leader intent on defending his people and their land and traditions—a mission that Harlyn continues, even as he campaigns to recover his ancestor's bones from the U.S. government. Completing Corine's circle, the book also explores the links, genetic and possibly cultural, between the Apache and the people of Mongolia.

Book excerpt: Nasdijj's critically acclaimed, award-winning memoir, "The Blood Runs Like a River Through My Dreams, took the literary world by storm. "An authentic, important book," raved "Esquire. "Unfailingly honest and very nearly perfect." Now, this celebrated Native American writer has given readers a powerful, brave, and deeply moving memoir of the unconditional love between a father and a son. Eleven-year-old Awee came to live with Nasdijj carrying a brown paper bag containing all his belongings, a legacy of abuse, and AIDS. But this beautiful, loving, and intelligent little boy also had enormous hope for his new life. "The Boy and the Dog Are Sleeping is the heart-rending but also joyous story of this untraditional little family, filled with love and laughter, but also with great pain, as Awee became progressively more ill. Nasdijj writes about their motorcycle trip to see the ocean for the first time, about baths and baseball, about Awee's "big brother" Crow Dog, and his dog, Navajo, but also about the brutal realities of reservation life and the challenges of dealing with a sometimes hostile medical establishment that often lacks the knowledge to treat pediatric AIDS. In the end, Nasdijj must find his own way of alleviating Awee's suffering--and of helping him maintain his dignity in the face of a disease that gradually robs him of himself. By turns searing and searching, lyrical and raw, "The Boy and the Dog "Are Sleeping is ultimately transcendent--for in the end Awee got what he wanted most in his short life: a real dad. "
