Building a State in Apache Land (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781169205543)

Building A State In Apache Land is a historical book written by Charles D. Poston. The book details the efforts of Poston to establish a new state in the Apache land during the 19th century. It provides a detailed account of the challenges, struggles, and triumphs of Poston's journey to create a new state in the American Southwest. The book also explores the complex relationships between the Apache tribes and the American settlers during this time period. It delves into the political, social, and economic factors that shaped the region and how Poston's vision of a new state was influenced by these factors. The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of the American Southwest and the struggles of early settlers to establish themselves in a new land.Gabilonda, who was the only Mexican officer who protested against the massacre, came very near being mobbed by Americans in Tucson, although he was perfectly innocent of any crime, --on the contrary, deserved credit for his humanity in rescuing the boy Evans. Gabilonda was subsequently tried by a Mexican court martial organized by Pesquiera, the Governor of Sonora, and acquitted. He lived to a green old age as Collector of Mexican customs on the boundary line, and died honored and respected.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
