"Geronimo earned his place in the pantheon of Native American heroes by standing up for his people, even in the face of punishment. Though he never regained his tribe's lands from the US government, he is remembered by many Apache for his leadership and courage. Readers learn about Geronimo's fight for Apache territory as well as his early life in the present-day American Southwest. Historical images of him and early Native American reservations enhance an important social studies topic"--Provided by the publisher.
