Leaving Everything Behind,
By Ahanatamao'o "xamaevo'estane" (Czech Republic) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Leaving Everything Behind: The Songs and Memories of a Cheyenne Woman (Audio CD)
Very useful and honest book. The story of a ordinary old Cheyenne woman, good singer, good beadworker, good grandmother, and good human being. The reader can learn about the contemporary life of the Cheyenne people even surviving traditions. The score of the Cheyenne songs and the follow-up CD make this book still more valuable.
