An Apache Princess is a historical novel written by Captain Charles King. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the life of a young Apache woman named Nita. Nita is the daughter of a prominent Apache chief and is known for her beauty, intelligence, and strong will. When she meets a young army officer named Lieutenant Wayne, the two fall in love despite their cultural differences and the ongoing conflict between the Apache people and the United States government. As Nita and Wayne navigate the challenges of their relationship, they also find themselves caught up in a larger conflict that threatens to tear their worlds apart. Filled with action, romance, and historical detail, An Apache Princess is a compelling tale of love and war on the American frontier.1903. Illustrations by Frederic Remington and Edwin Willard Deming. The literary novels of Charles King are ones of Victorian ideals, morals and views played out on western frontiers, the Civil War, and the Spanish Philippines. His often melodramatic stories are based on personal adventures and experiences with detailed observations and opinions arising from specific times and places. Publishing over 60 novels and numerous short stories, King was a popular author in his day, yet today is known mostly for one title, Campaigning With Crook. An Apache Princess begins: Under the willows at the edge of the pool a young girl sat daydreaming, though the day was nearly done. All in the valley was wrapped in shadow, though the cliffs and turrets across the stream were resplendent in a radiance of slanting sunshine. Not a cloud tempered the fierce glare of the arching heavens or softened the sharp outline of neighboring peak or distant mountain chain. Not a whisper of breeze stirred the drooping foliage along the sandy shores or ruffled the liquid mirror surface.
