On the Border with Crook

From 1870 until 1886 Captain John O. Bourke served on the staff of General George Crook, who Sherman described as the greatest Indian fighter the army ever had, a man whose prowess was demon-strated "from British America to Mexico, from the Missouri River to the Pacific Ocean." But On the Border with Crook is far more than a first-hand account of Crook's campaigns during the Plains Indian wars and in the Southwest. Alert, curious, and perceptive, Bourke brings to life the whole frontier scene. In crisp descriptions and telling anecdotes he recreates the events and landscapes through which he moved; he sketches sharp action-pictures not only of Crook and his fellow cavalrymen but also of such great leaders as Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, and Geronimo. Perhaps most important, Bourke shows us how General Crook was able to achieve his most remarkable victory—how this man of war won and deserved the trust of the tribes he had subjugated.

An Apache Campaign in the Sierra Madre is a crackling, swift-moving narrative of General George Crook's pursuit of Geronimo and other Apache Indians across southern Arizona and New Mexico to the Sierra Madre in Mexico in 1883. The Chiricahua Apaches and their culture, the towns and landscapes, the progress of the military expedition—all are observed at first hand by General Crook's aide-de-camp, Captain John G. Bourke, who will be remembered for this and another classic, On the Border with Crook.

After serving over fifteen years (1870-1886) with General George Crook, Bourke sat down to write this memoir of his hero. He brings to life the frontier, the plains, and the Southwest—as well as Native American heroes Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, and Geronimo. Combining strength and compassion, Bourke concludes, Crook carved out a space for himself in American history.

General Crook fought and ended the Apache wars in the American Southwest and travelling and fighting with him was John Gregory Bourke. This is a fascinating account of war first hand and is a must read for anybody with an interest in the military history of the United States. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Who, and what are the medicine-men (or medicine-women), of the American Indians? What powers do they possess in time of peace or war? How is this power obtained, how renewed, how exercised? What is the character of the remedies employed? Are they pharmaceutical, as we employ the term, or are they the superstitious efforts of empirics and charlatans, seeking to deceive and to misguide by pretended consultations with spiritual powers and by reliance upon mysterious and occult influences? Such a discussion will be attempted in this book, which will be restricted to a description of the personality of the medicine-men, the regalia worn, and the powers possessed and claimed. To go farther, and enter into a treatment of the religious ideas, the superstitions, omens, and prayers of these spiritual leaders, would be to open a road without end.

In ''The Medicine-Men of the Apache (Unabridged)'' by John G. Bourke, the author provides a comprehensive study of the Apache tribe''s spiritual leaders and healers, known as medicine-men. Through meticulous research and detailed accounts, Bourke delves into the rituals, practices, and beliefs of these medicine-men, shedding light on their crucial roles within Apache society. Written in a scholarly yet engaging tone, the book offers a unique insight into the spiritual and cultural traditions of the Apache people, making it a valuable resource for students of anthropology and Native American studies. Bourke''s attention to detail and respect for Apache traditions elevate this work above mere ethnographic study. As a prominent ethnologist and military officer who spent years living among various Native American tribes, including the Apache, Bourke brings both scholarly expertise and personal experience to his exploration of the medicine-men. His deep understanding and appreciation of Apache culture shine through in every page, providing readers with a nuanced and respectful portrayal of this often misunderstood group. ''The Medicine-Men of the Apache (Unabridged)'' is a must-read for anyone interested in Native American spirituality, cultural anthropology, or the history of indigenous peoples in North America.
