One Woman's Journey to the Base of the Grand Canyon,
By A Customer
This review is from: People of the Blue Water : A Record of the Life Among the Walapai and Havasupai Indians (Paperback)
This is an interesting (true) story of a young woman who heads west to work as a teacher among the the Walapai and Havasupai tribes in Arizona in the early 1900's. Her journey takes her to the tribe settlement at the base of the Grand Canyon, where tribe members existed with little or no contact with the outside world. The story of this tribe, along with their culture and existence in the Grand Canyon is unknown to many. The book is filled with fascinating accounts of the people of the tribe and the struggles they have faced. In addition, through her personal reflections, Flora Gregg Iliff does a good job of giving us a sense of the life and challenges faced by missionaries and teachers who went West at a time when the land was still being settled.
