Sinopsis

Winnetou, the chief of the Apache, is a legend in manyácountries. This book contains Karl May&rsquo,s whole WinnetouáTrilogy.Charlie, the young German immigrant, arrives to the WildáWest, and soon becomes Old Shatterhand, the hero, who canáknock out any enemy with a single blow, a warrior, who killsáonly when he has no other choice. He becomes Winnetou&rsquo,sáblood brother, and the death-daring adventures start, evenáthough he had already hunted bison, caught mustangs,ákilled a grizzly, and found himself in the war between theáApache and Kiowa.He teams up with Old Death against the Ku-Klux-Klan, andábandits who are preparing an attack on a silver mine. Heádefends trains against Indian attacks enticed by the whiteávillains, helps out Old Firehand against a Ponca raid, defeatsáthe bandits of the Llano Estacado with Sans-ear, the hunter,áand attempts to recover the treasure of the Apache.áIn his quest for adventure, Old Shatterhand never forgetsáhis desire to help the Native Americans.This unabridged English translation retains the excitingáadventures, and the strong moral conviction of May&rsquo,sáoriginal book, while modernising the style, and editing partsáthat were erroneous or may evoke bad associations. Witháthis editing the core of May&rsquo,s world, the action, the dreamingáof heroic deeds, and the struggle for a kind of justice haveábecome more emphasised, and more accessible to the modernáreader.
