The book delves into the life of the notorious figure known as the Apache Kid, an Aravaipa Apache born around 1860. His Apache name, Has-kay-bay-nay-ntayl, translates to “brave and tall and will come to a mysterious end,” which foreshadows the enigmatic nature of his life and disappearance. De La Garza’s work explores the Apache Kid’s assimilation into white society, his service as a scout, and his efforts to conform to the expectations of both military and civilian authorities. Despite his attempts to integrate, the Apache Kid’s story is marked by conflict and evasion, as he ultimately chose the warpath and managed to elude capture, leaving his fate unknown. The book is well-regarded for its comprehensive research, including a bibliography, chapter notes, photographs, and illustrations, providing a detailed account of this complex character in Arizona history.
