This book was written and inspired by my family who urged me to write about what happened at the warden's house in Fort Grant Arizona when I was assigned there at the prison complex. The book is a straightforward account of a paranormal event that caused me to think deeply about the events of the past around that area during the notorious Apache Wars of the 1880s. This book is a self-account of what I felt was a strong influence on me while there and how it impacted my sense of fairness and opinion of justice and injustices in our world. The fact is that injustices take place every day everywhere in our world. It does not just exist in the United States but everywhere on the globe. If you are a social warrior wanting to fight for injustices in the world and have a special cause or motivated to a special deed, read the book and let it inspire you as it did me. Nothing fancy, nothing complicated and nothing fake. It's a real emotional roller coaster for some and a trigger to become involved in others. You will find it to be a short book with just enough pictures to help visualize my presentation. When you are finished reading the book, it is hoped you are inspired to fight for something you believe in and are committed to make a better change or direction on the topic matter.

Winner of a National Council on Public History Book Award On April 30, 1871, an unlikely group of Anglo-Americans, Mexican Americans, and Tohono O’odham Indians massacred more than a hundred Apache men, women, and children who had surrendered to the U.S. Army at Camp Grant, near Tucson, Arizona. Thirty or more Apache children were stolen and either kept in Tucson homes or sold into slavery in Mexico. Planned and perpetrated by some of the most prominent men in Arizona’s territorial era, this organized slaughter has become a kind of “phantom history” lurking beneath the Southwest’s official history, strangely present and absent at the same time. Seeking to uncover the mislaid past, this powerful book begins by listening to those voices in the historical record that have long been silenced and disregarded. Massacre at Camp Grant fashions a multivocal narrative, interweaving the documentary record, Apache narratives, historical texts, and ethnographic research to provide new insights into the atrocity. Thus drawing from a range of sources, it demonstrates the ways in which painful histories continue to live on in the collective memories of the communities in which they occurred. Chip Colwell-Chanthaphonh begins with the premise that every account of the past is suffused with cultural, historical, and political characteristics. By paying attention to all of these aspects of a contested event, he provides a nuanced interpretation of the cultural forces behind the massacre, illuminates how history becomes an instrument of politics, and contemplates why we must study events we might prefer to forget.
