Beschreibung:
For generations into the twentieth century, Mary Jim, her family, and their ancestors lived a free and open life on the Columbia Plateau, traveling on horseback within a vast region--from the Snake River to Badger Mountain to Oregon's Blue Mountains. Denied a place on their ancestral lands, the original Snake River-Palouse people were forced to scatter. After most relocated to various Northwest reservations, maintaining their cultural identity became increasingly difficult. Still, elders continued to pass down oral histories. Rich in content, interpretation, and nuance, they insisted youngsters listen with rapt attention.
