Excerpt from A Clash of Cultures: Fort Bowie and Chiricahua ApachesAs part of a National Park Service program to introduce the metric system to Ameri cans, all measurements ia this book are expressed in metric units only. At the back of the book are explanations to help you convert metric figures to customary measurements.The camera wasn't fast enough or the boys weren't patient enough when the photographer captured these Chiricahuas playing an ancient Apache hoop and pole game.Apache Pass is a low, narrow saddle about kilometers long separating the Chiricahua from the Dos Cabezas Mountains. The Dos Cabezas - Two Heads - take their name from a pair of stone domes capping the summit. Siphon Canyon, a broad sandy wash, opens an easy entrance to Apache Pass on the east, but the way to the summit is steep, tortuous, and difficult. The face of Bowie Mountain walls the pass on the south. Helen's Dome, another curious rocky promontory, is a looming landmark to the southwest. The sheer walls of the mountains tower 600 to 700 meters above the pass, which is at an elevation of 1,560'meters.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Lance and the Shield: The Life and Times of Sitting Bull

"His narrative is griping....Mr. Utley transforms Sitting Bull, the abstract, romanticized icon and symbol, into a flesh-and-blood person with a down-to-earth story....THE LANCE AND THE SHIELD clears the screen of the exaggerations and fantasies long directed at the name of Sitting Bull." THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW Reviled by the United States government as a troublemaker and a coward, revered by his people as a great warrior chief, Sitting Bull has long been one of the most fascinating and misunderstood figures in American history. Now, distinguished historian Robert M. Utley has forged a compelling new portrait of Sitting Bull, viewing the man from the Lakota perspective for the very first time to render the most unbiased and historically accurate biography of Sitting Buil to date.
