Synopsis
EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS enlisted in the 7th Cavalry and saw active service in the Apache country of Southern Arizona. Knowing the country and its people, and endowed with a fertile imagination, Burroughs was able to see the great Indian wars from the Indian point-of-view. He wrote two books on the subject—THE WAR CHIEF, and APACHE DEVIL, The first of these tells of the bitterly harsh rearing of a boy in the Apache tradition, a white boy who became known as Shoz-Dijiji, the Black Bear, adopted son of Geron-imo, with a venomous hatred for all whites: Shoz-Dijiji who, in time, becomes a great war chief—like his dreaded stepfather. The second book, APACHE DEVIL, takes the story of Shoz-Dijiji further, telling of his lifelong battle with the Pony Soldiers as he and Geronimo fight desperately to maintain life and dignity for their people; it tells also of the Black Bear's love for a white woman. Although independent of one another, the two books are best read in their proper sequence. Ballantine Books is proud to bring these two rare works of Edgar Rice Burroughs to a public which has long admired this author. Ballantine Books is also the authorized publisher of the entire Tarzan and Mars series by Edgar Rice Burroughs.
