Its approach is innovative and suggests wide possibilities for further exploration.""—Clara Sue Kidwell, Women's Studies International Forum|""This readable and engaging work . . . marks a turning point in a developing literature on American Indian women, being a good general summary of all previous work, and making future work more possible. . . .
