Book Synopsis
As a young child, Herman Lehmann was captured by a band of plundering Apache Indians and remained with them for nine years. This is his dramatic and unique story.

Trade Review
Lehmann's memoir is quite fantastic-sounding at times, but is regarded as one of the best of that rare breed of book, the first-person 'captivity story' . . . One of the values of Lehmann's book is its no-holds-barred, unapologetic tone." —Rocky Mountain News

"A fascinating account of [Lehmann's] subsequent life among both the Apache and Comanche people. . . . this is an engaging read." —German Life

"Lehmann's true-life story features suspense and excitement that surpass even the skill of the most imaginative fiction writer." —Books of the Southwest
