Editor's notes:

I am reproducing this book exactly as written with the following modifications:
  • Footnotes are now endnotes at the bottom of the webpage and are numbered consecutively throughout the webpage.
  • Words & names written in Western Apache are changed to the now current orthography. But I have included the original transliteration at first mention of the Western Apache word, in which case the original transliteration immediately follows the Western Apache word and is enclosed in brackets & in a slightly smaller font size. I will make a list of words in the original transliteration matched up with the equivalent in the current orthography at a later time. Note that Goddard does not include any information about tone in his transcriptions, which is unfortunate. Furthermore, Goddard is often wrong in his phonetic transcription (so language learners beware!).
  • Western Apache words mentioned are in italics (excluding names of characters).
  • Page numbers are not indicated except at the beginning and end of sections.
  • Other minor things that I hope may ease accessibility and readability.
