Geronimo Or Goyahkla (1887)
Also known as Goyakhla, Geronimo was an Apache medicine man and leader. There was a time when a quarter of the whole US standing army pursued him. History called him the “last Native American leader to formally surrender to the US military.” He was a prisoner of war during the last two decades of his life. He was allowed to go to the Wild West shows and world’s fair, even the inauguration of Theodore Roosevelt. Sadly, the POTUS turned down his request about the return of his people to Arizona. About this, the Smithsonian said, ‘Through an interpreter, Roosevelt told Geronimo that the Indian had a ‘bad heart.’ ‘You killed many of my people; you burned villages… and were not good Indians.’ The president would have to wait a while “and see how you and your people act” on their reservation.”

Molte persone trovano difficile separare il vero uomo dal mito! Grigori Rasputin era un mistico pensato per essere il potere segreto dietro la monarchia. Ci furono un paio di tentativi di omicidio su di lui, ma l’unico ad avere successo fu una squadra di cospiratori conservatori guidati dal principe Feliks Yusupov. Questo mostra Rasputin con sua moglie Praskovia Dubrovina e sua figlia Maria a San Pietroburgo.
