  • The true story of an 11 year old boy is captured by Apache Warriors and becomes one of them on his path to survival.
    An excerpt from the introduction of Lehmann’s book, Nine Years Among the Indians, will tell the story just as well as I can. “He was captured by a band of Apache Indians when he was about eleven years old, and lived with this tribe for four years; later he became involved in difficulties with members of the tribe and was forced to flee for his life. He went out into the wilderness, where alone in the mountains he remained for about a year, and later he went to the Comanches, into which tribe he was adopted, and he remained with them until he was finally restored to his people,”

    What separates your videos in a really positive way to other productions is that you don't put in annoying sound effects to create fake tension. The tension comes naturally from the super interesting storys.
    I also like the slight hint of ambient music in the back. Keep it up! I'm excited for your next uploads!

      I am in total agreement. It was so much easier to really get involved emotionally and hold that feeling. I have skipped videos from annoying music that I didn't think matched the level of tension.
      This was truly a good way to do the reading.

    If you're interested in this story, I recommend reading Chevato by William Chebahtah. Chevato was the Apache warrior Hermann referred to as Billy Chiwat. Chevato helped Hermann to join the Comanche (he didn't join them himself despite his claim), brought Apache peyote rituals to the Comanche, and eventually married Quanah Parker's neice. Chevato was also an Apache scout for the army during the Apache Wars.

    There is an interesting "Whites captured by Indians connection" here. For those who don't know, Quanah Parker was the son of Cynthia Ann Parker, who had been kidnapped at 9 years of age by the Comanche and eventually fully intigrated into the tribe and married a Comanche Chief (Peta Nocona - Quanah's father). From the Wikipedia article: " As a tribute to his great affection to her, he never took another wife, although it was traditional for chieftains to have several wives."
    Her story was much more tragic as she never assimilated back into White society after her capture/rescue following the death of Peta Nocona. She died of a broken heart after the death of her daughter (Prairie Flower). Eventually their remains (Cynthia Ann, Prarie Flower, and Quanah) were all reinterred to the cemetary at Fort Sill where they could be buried together - may they rest in peace.

    Incredible what an eloquent and expressive writer Herman turned out to be, "as the veil of savagery slipped" really hit home. Definitive proof of "nature" being superior to "nurture".

      Granted he was always a bit fucked up afterwards which is understandable as it is the single greatest case of child trauma I have ever read about but he did alright. Was kind of a celeb actually on the whole Wild Bill-esque show scene

    This was such a compelling story, and the way you covered it was really well done! I do have one question, though: what was that western music playing in the background? It really added some extra oomph to the narration, though I would like to listen to it on its own as well!

      I have used a handful of tracks on repeat through the Apache series. I am happy to hear they add something. They are stock music tracks through StoryBlocks. If you want a list I can send them over to you but I have not been able to find them outside of the software.
