The author's rich, distinctive voice infuses this "book of memories" about growing up Indian under severe U.S. government restrictions in the early 1900s. In spite of the obvious hardships, Weber describes her experiences with warmth and affection in this unusually compelling memoir. Striking black-and-white photos illustrate each chapter and add to the book's appeal.
