No chips. ***234 mm x 164 mm. 346 pages including a ten page index. ***''Few living men boast a century of personal history and only the most exceptional can remember events with clarity or tell it in fascinating detail. Such an exceptional man is Ciye "Nino" Cochise, grandson of the legendary Chief Cochise who led the Chiricahua Apaches until his death. Now nearly ninety-eight, Nino is blessed with a memory brings in detail an untold and hitherto mostly unknown segment of american Indian life. He was only two years old in 1876 when the Chiricahua Apaches were removed from their homeland reservation by a force of U.S. Cavalry and scouts to the desolate San Carlos Reservation. ***The panorama opened by this biography is wide, its sweep inspiring as a deep breath of wine-sharp desert air. Here too is the tender and touching tale of Nino's mariage to his lovely "Golden Bird", daughter of a chief of the Tarahumari who sought refuge at Pa-Gotzin-Kay; the deep tragedy of her untimely death; the antics of the irrepressible centenarian Dee-O-Det; and hosts of other incidents, some tragic, many hilarious, and all deeply moving as they weave into the tapestry of this saga. ***In short, the reader will follow with delighted interest from the first page to the last the century-long saga of this wiry, tough-spirited native American, a unique and personal version of history. ' (Quote taken from inside front flap of dustwrapper). ***A third impression of a book that is hard to find in the UK, in nice collectable condition. *** For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. …
