Abstract
The paper sheds light on the motivations and reasoning behind Geronimo's dedication to the path of war by describing Geronimo's early life and the injustice done to his people and his own family by the Mexican troops and the white men. The paper describes the many battles he fought and the years of struggle with white men. The paper concludes that although is depicted as a savage, one must not forget that Geronimo was a great leader and a great warrior who prolonged the life of his Apache.
From the Paper
"To understand Geronimo's motivation, one must look at his early life. Born into the Bedonkohe band of the Apache Indian tribe, Geronimo was raised on Apache traditions. At the age of 17, he married his first wife, Alope, with whom he would have three children. In 1858, Geronimo and his tribe ventured to Old Mexico for trading. Confident that they would not be attacked, the warriors left their women and children at the camp to go into the town of Kaskiyeh and trade. While there, the tribe's camp was attacked by a Mexican troop on a hunting trip, and Geronimo's wife, three children, and mother were killed."
