About This Item
Santa Fe, NM: Western Edge Press, 2008. Softcover, 86 pages. Good condition. Size 8.5"x5.5". In narrative poetry the author "tells the story of the Pueblo Indians from the time of creation to the building of the first atomic bomb . . . . (the book) begins with a Puebloan creation myth which lays the groundwork for all that follows - the conquest and exploitation of the Indians by Europeans, Indian revolt, and, finally, the courage of the Pueblo people as they wait for their stories to come full circle. This powerful book is storytelling and mythmaking at its best." Wrappers have moderate handling/shelfwear, and a crease on the back wrapper. Text is clean and unmarked.. Good.
