A very good book to read if you can take the words and wisdom from these incredible women. They speak honestly about their history and experience as a Native American people.
This is a nice book that tells the personal stories of 4 Native Grandmothers. It is interesting to hear their accounts of events in their lives and also to learn about their culture. These Grandmothers are all tough influential women in their tribes and to hear their stories is an inspiration.
