Into distant lands held sacred by the Chiricahua Apaches they came in search of the gold that would make them hombres ricos—until at last los Indios could brook no further trespass. Full of battles and animal lore, headstrong romance, revenge and retribution, it traces the story of three generations of men who dared invade the home of the Apache Rain Gods en el Cañón de la Buena Fortuna, the valley that to this day still lies in the shadows of a hat-shaped peak in those lands now known as Arizona.
