I was not sure what I was about to get myself into when I opened this book. I will have to admit that I had no clue who Geronimo was. I still and trying to tie some loose ends together but I think i understand the basics of him. Anyways about the novel. At first i was not very thrilled with reading the book because it was just different from what i am use to. Now that i am further along i really enjoy it. I think that is because the set up of the novel. The way the story is being told. The boy is very proud of his heritage and seems to want to tell everyone about his life but in a fun way. Now do not get me wrong this book is not on a fun subject but the form of writing makes the story more interesting then just a factual book. When reading i related this event to the holocaust in someways. Ways like the train ride, not being feed appropriately, knowing that they cannot be heading to a safe place but to a place of death, and the fact that the Apache tribe was the victim of the "White Eyes". Also the way the apaches love to share stories of their family, friends, and ancestors is always heart warming because i love to here other stories and see just how different people are but in reality not one way is right. Also it seems that the Apache Indians have judged the "White Eyes" seemed to be true and correct. As in they said that "White Eyes" seem to fear death and that is because some do not truly believe in a higher place. When the Apache Indians do not want to die but they are not afraid to die because they believe in a higher place. I mean i personally agree with that statement but that is my personal opinion. I have just found this novel interesting and I do not have to force myself to read it. I do however must find a quite place so i can completely concentrate so i do not get confused with all the characters.
