The next step, the government believed, was to resettle the Apaches, but the powerful, rebellious warrior Geronimo threatened their plans.

Thus began a campaign in which the army deployed more than a quarter of its men to track down the Indian leader. Although the soldiers greatly outnumbered Geronimo's small band of followers, he eluded capture for more than five years, as the cavalry chased him through Arizona, New Mexico, and all the way down to Mexico.
