My nomination is:
"Heart Song of Charging Elk" It's about a Lakota man at the time of settlement who eventually becomes part of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. They travel to France, he gets left behind by mistake...and the rest of the book is about his experience in this foreign land and culture. It's an outstanding book for someone from Minneapolis right now. First, it's a great insight into Native culture. It also is insight into what it is like to drop into a world with a completely different language and culture, dropping unprepared into an industrial world.....an experience many of our new arrivals are having in Minneapolis right now. I got my copy at Louise Edrich's book store in Kenwood. R.T.
