«Winnetou» is the adventure novel by Karl May, published by SM in paperback (250 pages, in Spanish).
The book follows Apache chief Winnetou and his blood brother, the white hunter Old Shatterhand, through the southwestern United States in the second half of the 19th century. Amid dangers and confrontations, the story shows the tensions between the advance of the railroad and the way of life of indigenous tribes, and champions friendship over cultural differences.
It corresponds to the second edition and number 5 of SM's La Ballena Blanca collection, and is part of Karl May's Winnetou novel series.
It is aimed at young readers and those who enjoy classic Western adventure stories.
Karl Friedrich May was a German author known for writing often in first-person narrative about travels and adventures, mostly set in the American Old West or the Orient and Middle East, but also in Latin America, China and within Germany. For a time he insisted that he actually had travelled to the West and was called Old Shatterhand there, while in the Ottoman Empire he was called Kara Ben Nemsi, and posed in costumes.
