From the Back Cover:
Introduced by an autobiographical sketch of the author's early years and linked by a commentary derived from her letters, articles, and interviews, the separate pieces coalesce into an illuminating picture both of the Niobrara River country and of Mari Sandoz's emergence as a major American writer.
Review:
"A book that will delight Miss Sandoz's wide and admiring audience."-K. Ross Toole, "History News,"

"Sandoz's compressed and iron-biting style, which cuts to the bone, is well suited to clearing up the confusion between the two Sitting Bulls, confounded by legend and history; to telling of the hidden burial of Crazy Horse; and to etching, in the story 'Peachstone Basket, ' a sardonic and unforgettable picture of small-town life in the area [northwestern Nebraska and the Dakotas] around 1920."-"Library Journal,"
