"Rarely do anthropology books provide such abundant historical and research information while furnishing the reader with an in-depth understanding of their authors."-Library Journal, "Rarely do anthropology books provide such abundant historical and research information while furnishing the reader with an in-depth understanding of their authors."-- Library Journal, "A fascinating piece of detective work. One that blends scholarship, human emotion, and mysetery; one that emphasizes historic ties between the American Southwest and northern Mexico."-Southwest Historical Quarterly, "Part history, part anthropology, part archaeology-and in large part a fascinating travel adventure set in a relatively inaccessible mountain range just south of the border- The Apache Diaries is one of the most engaging contributions to the literature on the U.S.-Mexico borderlands and the Apache culture in years."- The Bloomsbury Review, "This work provides pathos, suspense, insight, high drama, moral prescription, heart-wrenching tragedy, and an intimate entrée into a world of discovery and loss."-- Choice, "Goodwin provided a many-layered and fascinating account of his quest to make sense of his father's engagement with the Apaches.

It is also a valuable addition to literature on the Apaches."--Times Literary Supplement, 27 October 2000 "'The Apache Diaries' is a haunting, passionate and meticulous detective story. A son's longing determination to know his enigmatic father, and the brutal war waged upon a small, resourceful band of Apache, are the stuff of a terrific read that at times left me breathless with sorrow." - Louise Erdrich. "Neil Goodwin has written a great book. One need know nothing of the Apache or anthropology or the work of Grenville Goodwin to be caught up at once in its spell. With steadily gathering force, the amazing story unfolds of two exceptional men, father and son, each on his own quest. And always one feels the haunting presence of the Apache, their world and their mysteries." - David McCullough. "'The Apache Diaries' is about seeking. It is about our boundless urge to bring our lives full circle, gathering them into a meaningful whole. It is about Apaches, but so is it about each of us. Not since Theodora Kroeber penned Ishi has there been another book like this." - Bernard L. Fontana, author of 'Tarahumara: Where Night Is the Day of the Moon' "A son's search for his father and the father's search, fifty years earlier, for the mysterious Sierra Madre Apaches, come together in this profoundly moving story." - H. Henrietta Stockel, author of 'Women of the Apache Nation: Voices of Truth' "An absorbing and informative account of an unexplored chapter in Chiricahua Apache history." - Keith N. Basso, "A fascinating piece of detective work.

Synopsis
In 1930, four decades after the surrender of Geronimo, anthropologist Grenville Goodwin headed south in search of a rumored band of "wild" Apaches in the Sierra Madre. Goodwin's journals chronicling his epic search have been edited and annotated by his son, Neil, who was born three months before his father's tragic death at the age of thirty-three. Neil Goodwin uses the journals to engage in a dialogue with the father he never knew.
