Bestselling historian and Pulitzer Prize-finalist H.W. Brands follows the lives of General William Tecumseh Sherman and Apache leader Goyathlay (known by his nickname “Geronimo”) to tell the story of the Indian Wars and the final fight for control of the American continent. Sherman and Geronimo were keen strategists and bold soldiers, ruthless with their enemies. Over the course of the 1870s and 1880s these two leaders would confront each other in the final battle for what the American West would be: a sparsely settled, wild home where Indigenous American tribes could thrive or a more densely populated extension of the America to the east of the Mississippi.
