Journey of the Grey Fox People: A Novel

by Harold Courlander

First published in 1977 under the title The Mesa of Flowers, this anthropological novel evokes the Southwest as it was five centuries ago. "The Hopi, like the Jews, were a chosen people, and like them spent a season in the wilderness before arriving at their promised land. [This book] is based on the Hopi migrations. The history of an Indian people is as much private property as a personal biography is, and Courlander has deferred to that privacy by inventing a desert people loosely based on the Hopi, and then following one invented clan, the Grey Fox People. . . . Courlander has written a fine portrayal of a great, good people."--Mick McAllister, Denver Post
