Eve Ball’s collected Apache testimony — the Chiricahua and Warm Springs wars, exile and imprisonment, told by the people who were there and their descendants.

Context: First published 1980; the standard edition is University of Oklahoma Press with Dan L. Thrapp, Nora Henn and Lynda A. Sánchez.

Why it’s on the list: The companion volume to In the Days of Victorio, and the one place to read the four names Debbie Lee lists — Victorio, Geronimo, Mangas Coloradas, Cochise — from the Apache side.

Where I saw it: Named in Part 2 of Debbie Lee’s four-part Catron County Centennial History, posted publicly by the Catron County Historical Society in April 2022. It is part of the Catron County reading list assembled for the Luna novel research — the county Kyle’s family town sits in.
