From the 1840s onward, United States military forces clashed with
the Apache, a group of Native American peoples associated with the
southwestern part of North America. US territorial expansion and
conflict - first with Mexico and then during the Civil War - led to
an escalation of hostilities that culminated in the defeat of the
Apache leader Geronimo in 1886, although fighting continued into
the 20th century. In this study the clashes at Cieneguilla (1854),
First Adobe Walls (1864), and Cibecue Creek (1881) are assessed in
detail. Fully illustrated and featuring contemporary accounts and
specially commissioned artwork, this history examines exactly how
the Apache were able to pose such a grave threat to US forces and
how their initial advantages were gradually negated by the cavalry.
Examining the tactics, equipment and training available to each
side over four decades of evolving conflict, this is an eye-opening
combatant's eye view of one of history's most intriguing campaigns.
