Rezensionen

James is a local East Texas author whom I personally know. He has always been extremely dedicated to reaching out to the local youth. I have most of his books and they are wonderful. Highly recommended.

FROM AMAZON: Although this is historical fiction, Ulzana was an actual person, the brother of Chihuahua, a Chiricahua sub-chief. The Apache life-way in this story is presented the way it was actually lived—the way Ulzana really experienced it. If you want to know what life was really like in the Wild West, this is the book for you

Not only is this Ulzana’s story, it’s also the story of the Cho-ken-en (Chiricahua Apaches), their eventual surrender to the U.S. Army and the Shis-Inday (Apache) betrayal by the American government.

We live all the stages of Ulzana’s life—his childhood, his warrior training, his raids against the Mexicans and Americans, his courtship and marriage, and his attempts to maintain the old lifeways as a husband and father. We experience the joys and sorrows just as Ulzana did.

Here are all the heroes and villains, both Indian and white, as they lived, bled, and died. After reading Ulzana’s story, you’ll appreciate these remarkable people in a new and authentic light.

All three books of the Chiricahua Apache series—Brother, the Spanish missionary period, Ulzana, the American Indian Wars, and Injun, the final disposition of the Chiricahua Apache—present the most complete understanding of what the Apaches became in terms of what they experienced.

A very introspective Novel mostly going on in the mind of the chief, with little description of the startling 85-year-old's break out of the reservation. Pretty good read.
