Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shoz-Dijiji, the Black Bear... a white man who believed himself to be a full blooded Apache, and who had dedicated his life to a feud against the treacherous "white eyes" who had invaded his country and destroyed his family...To the pony soldiers and to white travellers he became known as the Apache Devil, a pitiless scourge who swept in, killed, took his vengeance, and slipped away without a trace. Thus Shoz-Dijiji, the adopted son of Geronimo, was honored in his tribe. And even among his sworn enemies there were those who called him just, and a friend. One of these was a woman--who loved Sho-Dijiji. But she was white--an impossible obstacle to the racial pride of an Apache warrior.So Sho-Dijiji continued to live his life of hate and loyalty and love, of running fights, of massacre and torture; until at last even the tribe of Geronimo signed a peace treaty with the white men--and Sho-Dijiji learned that the woman he loved had been stolen by renegade white outlaws. Then Sho-Dijiji hunted as he had never hunted before.

Book Myths and Tales of the White Mountain Apache

Download or read book Myths and Tales of the White Mountain Apache written by Grenville Goodwin and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2015-11-27 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This volume contains translations of Apache stories that reflect our distinct view of the world and our approach to life. These myths and fables have survived through untold generations because the truth contained in them is eternal and the moral lessons that they teach are still valid. . . . You can read these stories and catch a glimpse of how our ancestors observed nature, drew metaphors from everyday observations and happenings, and applied the lessons learned to everyday life. Read them and you will see how harmony with nature and the natural world is the goal of every Apache.” —Ronnie Lupe, Tribal Chairman, White Mountain Apache Tribe These fifty-seven tales (with seven variants) gathered between 1931 and 1936 include major cycles dealing with Creation and Coyote, minor tales, and additional stories derived from Spanish and Mexican tradition. The tales are of two classes: holy tales said by some to explain the origin of ceremonies and holy powers, and tales which have to do with the creation of the earth, the emergence, the flood, the slaying of monsters, and the origin of customs. As Grenville Goodwin was the first anthropologist to work with the White Mountain Apache, his insights remain a primary source on this people.

Book The Medicine Men of the Apache

Download or read book The Medicine Men of the Apache written by John G. Bourke and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John G. Bourke's 'The Medicine-Men of the Apache' delves into the intricate world of Apache medicine men, providing a detailed account of their practices, beliefs, and rituals. Written in a meticulous and scholarly style, the book offers an invaluable insight into the cultural and spiritual significance of these healers within the context of Apache society. Bourke's thorough research and firsthand experiences with the Apache people bring authenticity and depth to his study, making it a must-read for anyone interested in Native American traditions and indigenous healing practices. The narrative is rich with anecdotes and observations, painting a vivid picture of a largely misunderstood aspect of Apache culture. John G. Bourke, an American soldier and ethnologist, draws on his extensive interactions with the Apache tribes to present a nuanced and respectful portrayal of their medicine men. His background in anthropology and military service provided him with a unique perspective that informs his writing, offering a blend of academic rigor and personal insight. Bourke's dedication to understanding and documenting Apache customs shines through in 'The Medicine-Men of the Apache,' making it a seminal work in the field. I highly recommend 'The Medicine-Men of the Apache' to readers interested in anthropology, Native American studies, and cultural history. Bourke's comprehensive study sheds light on a lesser-known aspect of Apache culture and offers a thought-provoking exploration of traditional healing practices.

Book The Medicine Men of the Apache  Unabridged

Download or read book The Medicine Men of the Apache Unabridged written by John G. Bourke and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2018-11-02 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This eBook has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. 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.

This is an important book and will become the standard reference on Western Apache material culture." —American Indian Quarterly "This book will surely appeal not only to those who are interested in the Apache, material culture studies, or the potential of Native American museum resources as cultural and historical documents, but also to those who are concerned with the way humans adapted to the environment and thus 'utilized their world so well.'" —African Arts "It is a remarkably beautiful and detailed catalog of the Goodwin and Guenther collections of Wester Apache artiffacts in the Arizona State Musuem—and a lot more! . . . A section of thirty-two color photographs by award-winning photographer Helga Teiwes is the delectable frosting on this rich and satisfying cake." —Journal of Arizona History
