Victorio - Apache Warrior and Chief

A steadfast champion of his people during the wars with encroaching Anglo- Americans, the Apache chief Victorio deserves as much attention as his better known contemporaries Cochise and Geronimo. In presenting the story of this nineteenth-century Warm Springs Apache warrior, Kathleen P. Chamberlain expands our understanding of Victorio's role in the Apache wars and brings him into the center of events.
