A tale of survival

I am continually amazed and the resilience and spiritual power of the native people of the Americas. While most American Indian history is written as though the tribes were dead and gone, I thought "Selling Your Father's Bones" was notable for its inclusion of the living Nez Perce in the retelling of the story of their forced exodus. This review was in the May 10 Books section of the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
