Homework


 We have all heard of Geronimo and the Apache Wars.  Examine Geronimo’s story and explain why he so completely caused fear among white men and why even some Apache hated him.  As an alternative, you may write about the incredible Apache chiefs, Cochise, Victorio, and Mangas Coloradas. (Note, Geronimo was not a chief)
