Here is a Burroughs thriller with a new background--that of the last Apache raids of Geronimo many years ago. But in this band was a white man who believed himself to be a full-blooded Apache. A western of westerns, the story is written largely from the viewpoint of an Indian. The author has painted a vivid picture of times that are gone forever, against a background of desert and mountain wilderness in New Mexico, Arizona, Sonora and Chihuahua. Shoz-Dijiji, the Black bear; Gian-nah-tah, his friend; Nejeune, his pinto war pony and Wichita Billings, the white girl that he loved are virile characters in a virile story of hate and loyalty and love, of running fights, of massacre and torture.
