Apache Devil by Edgar Rice Burroughs

Description

Apache Devil is a book by Edgar Rice Burroughs, first published in 1933. Set against the stark beauty and harsh realities of the American Southwest, it blends frontier adventure with a dramatic portrayal of cultural conflict during the closing years of the Apache wars. Burroughs, best known for creating Tarzan and John Carter of Mars, draws on his long-standing fascination with the Old West to craft a fast-moving narrative filled with ambushes, treachery, and the struggle for survival. At the centre of the story is Shoz-Dijiji, an Apache warrior whose loyalty to his people and fierce sense of honour drive the novel’s emotional weight. As he moves between the fading traditions of his tribe and the relentless pressures of encroaching settlers, the book explores themes of identity, justice, and the cost of conflict. The sweeping desert landscapes, tense frontier encounters, and well-paced plot make this a compelling read for those searching for vintage adventure fiction and historical Western tales. Burroughs’ characteristic energy, clear narrative style, and flair for dramatic action help establish the book as a noteworthy contribution to early 20th-century Western literature. Its blend of character-driven drama and rugged atmosphere gives readers a vivid look at a turbulent era, making it well suited to anyone seeking classic Western adventure ebooks or historically inspired frontier stories.
