The narrative follows the young and courageous Lieutenant James Decker as he navigates the challenges of military life and confronts the dangers posed by hostile Apaches, particularly the infamous Geronimo. The story begins by establishing Decker's character and his early encounters with bullying, showcasing his bravery even at a young age, leading to his ambition to become a respected officer in the military. At the start of the novel, a group of boys during a summer afternoon becomes embroiled in a conflict when a bully named Buck Kennon targets Almon Goodwin, a disabled boy. James Decker rises to the occasion, defending Almon and challenging Buck to a fight. This encounter defines Decker's character and establishes his knack for standing up to danger, earning admiration from others. The opening chapters then transition into his military challenges, as Decker is stationed at Fort Reno and becomes involved in potential confrontations with Apache warriors, hinting at the struggles and adventures that lie ahead. The groundwork is laid for an action-packed tale of adventure, courage, and moral dilemmas in the American West. (This is an automatically generated summary.) Reading ease score: 74.8 (7th grade).
