Winnetou ІIІ: A novel

Karl Friedrich May

Winnetou III terminates the adventurous cycle by the remarkable German writer Karl May (1842–1912) about the Mescalero Apache chieftain Winnetou. Events of the trilogy take place in the second half of the 19th century in the USA during colonization of the Wild West. In this part Killing Hand keeps on his travel through western territories of North America. Here he gets acquainted with well-known westmen, encounters a band of robbers as well as Indians of the Comanche, Oglala Lakota and Kiowa tribes, he manages even to escape from impending, as it seems, death by a pillar of tortures. But he was fated to live through anguish of the loss of a closed one, too.
