An Apache Campaign in the Sierra Madre is a non-fiction book written by John G. Bourke. The book chronicles the expedition of the United States Army in pursuit of the hostile Chiricahua Apaches in the spring of 1883. Bourke, who was a captain in the army, served as a participant and chronicler of the campaign. The book provides a detailed account of the military campaign, which was conducted in the rugged terrain of the Sierra Madre Mountains in Mexico. Bourke describes the challenges faced by the army, including the harsh weather conditions, lack of supplies, and the elusive nature of the Apache warriors. He also provides insights into the culture and customs of the Apache people, based on his interactions with them during the campaign.The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of the campaign, including the initial planning and preparation, the march into the mountains, the encounters with the Apache warriors, and the eventual return to base. The narrative is based on Bourke's personal observations, as well as the official reports and accounts of other participants in the campaign.Overall, An Apache Campaign in the Sierra Madre provides a vivid and detailed account of a significant event in the history of the American West. It offers insights into the military tactics, cultural clashes, and human experiences that characterized the conflict between the United States Army and the Apache people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
