Edwin Eastman was an American author and adventurer who lived in the 19th century. He is best known for his book Seven and Nine Years Among the Camanches and Apaches, which details his experiences living with and among these Native American tribes. Not much is known about Eastman's early life, but he was born in 1832 in New York State.
