In a land ravaged by war and vengeance, Yellow Boy, the last warrior of the Mescalaro stands tall, fighting for the soul of his people.

As the nineteenth century gives way to the twentieth, the borderlands of New Mexico, Arizona, Chihuahua, and Sonora are aflame with conflict and chaos. A simmering range war between powerful cattle barons and struggling ranchers in the Tularosa Basin country erupts into violence, culminating in the brutal murder and mysterious disappearance of the esteemed Albert Fountain and his young son, Henry. As revolution ignites in Mexico and trench warfare rages across Europe, the last remnants of the Apache continue to roam wild and free in the Sierra Madre, defying the forces that seek to crush them.

Amidst this turmoil, the Mescalero Apache warrior, Yellow Boy, emerges as a beacon of resistance. Armed with his rifle and unyielding spirit, Yellow Boy fights to preserve his people's way of life. He confronts an autocratic Indian agent determined to erase Mescalero culture, battles a malevolent witch bent on blood-soaked vengeance, and metes out justice to those who dare commit heinous crimes against the innocent.

The Last Warrior, final installment of The Life and Times of Yellow Boy, Mescalero Apache, is a story of a people fighting for their survival against relentless oppression. Weaving together truth and fiction, W. Michael Farmer paints a devastating picture of a time when cultures clashed and the old ways of the Apache teetered on the brink of extinction. Join Yellow Boy, the last warrior of the Mescalero, as he stands tall against the tides of history, ensuring that his people's legacy endures.

Defying betrayal and hardship, Chato fights to save his family and his people's rightful place in the West.

As the Apache Wars roar toward their conclusion in the summer of 1886, renowned Apache army scout and leader Chato joins a delegation of scouts to Washington, D.C., to meet President Grover Cleveland. Their mission? To plead their case for the Chiricahua scouts to remain at Fort Apache and cultivate their lands in peace.

For his unwavering loyalty and service, Chato is awarded a silver medal from Cleveland, along with the implied promise that the scouts can stay where they are. However, after Geronimo's surrender, Chato and his fellow scouts are instead transported to the harsh confines of Fort Marion, Florida, as prisoners of war. They, and the Chiricahua people as a whole, will be deprived of their freedom and their way of life for the next three decades.

Finally freed in the wake of Geronimo's death, the tribe returns to New Mexico to start over. But Geronimo's longstanding assertion that Chato is a liar and traitor casts a long shadow. Shunned by the very people he has spent his life fighting for, Chato nevertheless remains defiant, his resilient spirit never wavering despite the heavy toll of his life's trials.

Will Rogers Medallion-winning author W. Michael Farmer masterfully concludes Chato's epic tale, illuminating the resilience of a leader determined to preserve his people's heritage against overwhelming odds. Proud Outcast is a tale of honor, survival, and the relentless pursuit of a place to call home.
