Synopsis

Yellow Cat explores the conflicts that led to the near extinction of the Apaches, the Indians who called themselves The People, during the 1870s.The story is driven by three protagonists: Yellow Cat, visionary warrior, who leads The People against encroaching White Eyes; General Crowe, Christian soldier, whose efforts toward peace meet political doom; and Indian Agent Osprey, who seeks to perpetuate a personally lucrative conflict.Sometimes aiding, and sometimes thwarting the aims of the protagonists, are: The Gan, animistic guardians of The People; Two Foxes, Yellow Cats sister, who becomes the Bride of the Sun; Chaco, traitor to The People; and Red Grass Rising, shamaness, leader of The People, and friend of the Gan; and enforcement officerWalter, who may be related to The Prince of Fire.Yellow Cat is the cymbal clash of a war between cultures whose reverberations continue to ring.[Author bio]George Simone lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan, from which base he frequently extends his years of study and travel in the Southwest.
