Viac o knihe

The book delves into the tragic events of April 30, 1871, when a coalition of Anglo-Americans, Mexican Americans, and Tohono Oodham Indians executed a massacre of surrendered Apache individuals at Camp Grant. It highlights the silenced voices of the victims and the aftermath, including the abduction of Apache children. Through a multivocal narrative that combines documentary evidence, Apache accounts, and ethnographic research, it reveals how these painful histories persist in the collective memory of affected communities, challenging the official narratives of the Southwest.
