Jastrzembski, Joseph C

Traces the history of the Apache Indians from 1500 to the early twenty-first century, discussing how they established themselves in the face of competition from the Spanish, Mexicans, and Americans, how they dealt with resistance, how they preserved their culture, and how they navigated the changing social, political, and economic landscape of modern America.

Traces the history of the Apaches in the American Southwest from the early sixteenth century to the end of resistance in 1886; and describes how their way of life changed as a result of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo and American expansion into their territory.
