Customer Reviews

I loved this book!

After spending over 20 yrs exploring the Navajo reservation and coming across Edison at Hubbell Trading post, I thought I knew a little about the Dine and there experience with both the Spanish and the Americans. I learned so much more listening to this book. I truly enjoyed the narrator and coauthor tell the story. I felt like if I had a month with him I could speak Navajo fluently. I have recommended this book to so many people I know. I'm buying a hard copy so next time I see Edison I can get him to sign a copy of the book. Anyone who spends time in the 4 Corners area or has an interest in the Dine people should read this book.
