"I somewhat feel saddened by the mere thought that there are people out there who won't ever chance to read this work by Ian Frazier -- people who would benefit richly from the experience of having read it. It was like a vacation to a world seldom seen/scene.
"I'm crocheting a lot of different items for the Pine Ridge Reservation residents,and I thought I'd find out a little more about them. The Friends of the PRR website has a list of books to read,and this is one of them."
"This is a fascinating account of conditions on the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota. The book is well-written, heart-breaking, and makes for compelling reading."
