Really enjoyed this one! The story follows an entire family of a Kiowa/Cherokee family in OK starting in the mid-1970's. Describes the hardships in maintaining their culture and dignity as well as dealing with the powerful ill affects of drugs and alcohol. Also about the value of family and tradition.
