Through the eyes of four very different people, Fragile Treaties tells the story of the forced exodus of the Ute Indians from Colorado. Fragile Treaties is about promises made and broken. It is about betrayal, greed and deceit. But finally, it is about forgiveness and the bond that looks past shortcomings and differences to transform the soul.

This review is from: Fragile Treaties (Paperback)
Fragile Treaties is a great read. Seeing ranching, poverty, the Utes, and western Colorado through the eyes of Lily Bodeen is a treat. There's a lot of history here--the author obviously did her homework--but the writing is lively and engaging.

History comes to life,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fragile Treaties (Paperback)
The history of the Ute in southwest Colorado comes to life in Fragile Treaties. The author provides useful facts mingled in a captivating style to tell the story of the friendship between a wife of a Ute chief, and the wife of a calvary officer, and the conflict that threatens to destroy all they hold dear to them. Very impressive book. Well thought out, well researched, and well written.
