Geronimo
Geronimo (1829-1909), Apache chief who led opposition to the U.S. policy to relocate his people on reservations. His determination has endured him as an icon to all peoples. Imprisoned in Florida for awhile after his surrender, he lived his later life as a celebrity at Ft. Sill, OK. Contrary to popular belief, he was never confined there.
For a good biography on Geronimo visit publicdomainreview.org/2011/08/29/geronimo-the-warrior/ I read his little autobiography which was dictated to the superintendent of schools in Lawton, OK. I was a student at the University of Oklahoma, where it is housed in the Bass Collection. Originals may be read there, but not checked out.
