Lehmann and his brother were captured by the Apaches in 1870. His brother escaped but Herman remained and became a warrior within the Apache and later Comanches and grew to hate whites. In this book, Lehmann relates the riveting story of his captivity and the actions he took while living as an Indian, including killing soldiers and other whites and Mexicans. He eventually left the Indians and resumed life as a white man.
