The Black Legend: George Bascom, Cochise, and the Start of the Apache Wars
Doug Hocking
In 1861, war between the U. S. and the hostile Chiricahua Apaches seemed inevitable. When a young boy was kidnapped, Lieutenant George Bascom confronted Apache leader Cochise—an act some blamed for setting the smoldering conflict ablaze. This book analyzes that legend, versus what really happened, within the historical context of the Indian Wars.
