Cochise was a name that struck terror in hearts across the Southwest. Yet in the autumn of 1872, Brigadier General Oliver O. Howard and his aid-de-camp, Lieutenant Joseph Alton Sladen, entered Arizonas rocky Dragoon Mountains in search of the elusive Chiricahua Apache chief. Accompanied only by a guide and two Apache scouts, they sought to convince Cochise that the bloody fighting between his people and the Americans must stop. Cochise had already reached that conclusion, but he had found no American official he could trust.
Slade, Howards devoted aide, maintained a journal during their two-month quest from Fort Tularosa, New Mexico, to Cochises stronghold. Joseph Sladens journalenriched by Edwin R. Sweeneys introduction, epilogue, and lively notesis a unique source on Chiricahua lifeways and an engrossing tale of travel and adventure.
