Un viaje al Oeste americano desde la mirada de quien lo habitó en ambos lados de la frontera. En 1870, en plena expansión hacia el oeste de Estados Unidos, un niño blanco es capturado en territorio fronterizo. Lo que comienza como un episodio de violencia en el marco de las guerras indias se convierte en una experiencia que marcará toda su vida: nueve años viviendo entre apaches y comanches, en el corazón de las Grandes Llanuras.

In a real-life version of Little Big Man comes Indian captive narrative of Herman Lehmann. He was captured as a boy in 1870 and lived for nine years among the Apaches and Comanches. Long considered one of the best captivity stories from the period, Lehmann came to love the people and the life. Only through the gentle persuasion of famed Comanche chief, Quanah Parker, was Lehmann convinced to remain with his white family once he was returned to them.

As a young child, Herman Lehmann was captured by a band of plundering Apache Indians and remained with them for nine years. This is his dramatic and unique story. His memoir, fast-paced and compelling, tells of his arduous initial years with the Apache as he underwent a sometimes torturous initiation into Indian life. Peppered with various escape attempts, Lehmann's recollections are fresh and exciting in spite of the years past.
