About this product

Product Information

Here is a genuine Little Big Man story, with all the color, sweep, and tragedy of a classic American western. It is the tale of Herman Lehmann, a captive of the Apaches on the Southern Plains of Texas and New Mexico during the 1870s. Adopted by a war chief, he was trained to be a warrior and waged merciless war on Apache enemies, both Indian and Euro-American. After killing an Apache medicine man in self-defense, he fled to a lonely hermitage on the Southern Plains until he joined the Comanches. Against his will, Lehmann was returned to his family in 1879. The final chapters relate his difficult readjustment to Anglo life.Lehmann's unapologetic narrative is extraordinary for its warm embrace of Native Americans and stinging appraisal of Anglo society. Once started, the story of this remarkable man cannot be put down. Dale Giese's introduction provides a framework for interpreting the Lehmann narrative.

    One Of The Best True Life Stories I Have Ever Read

    Written in a manner that author is so artistic in describing what happened to him as a white captive. It is like you are right there standing and watching it really happen. Once you start to read it you can not put the book down.

    The title says it all.

    Its graphic about being captured by the Apaches at age 11 and living with them for 9 years. Historically very interesting about Indian life from a different view point.

    The Kale of History: Sometimes You have to Eat It

    This classic, yet sporadically revolting volume is essential reading, for anyone interested in Texas or Native American history. Few if any Apaches or Comanches were ever able to convey as much of their story as Herman Lehmann, since he was more easily acculturated and educated, after spending his formative years as a Plains tribesman. Raised a German-Texan, and kidnapped quite young, he stayed true to his Comanche friends and would have his Apache adopted family, had tragedy not interfered. Few other persons could have spoken so frankly and effectively for all three cultures! This unpretentious book is not burdened with the prejudice or political agendas of our generation, nor those of his own. It may have been discounted by some later scholars who found his story outlandish or ...
