Blending the analysis of individual Apache lives with the analysis of their culture, this study tells of the ceremonies, religious beliefs, social life, and economy of the Chiricahua Apache. It traces how a person "becomes an Apache", beginning with conception, marriage, domestic and military duties and concluding with the rites surrounding death.
