Unfinished Business

Last Standing Woman, Winona LaDuke's first novel, is every tribe's story. Powerful tales, loaded with grief to the gunnels, yet full and fair and spiced with the joy of resistance, we can catch a glimpse of the hope embodied in the natives of the continents we call Americas. Superbly crafted, it is worthy of literary acclaim; as authentic history, it is a beacon calling us to our unfinished business--that of making amends with the host nations on whose lands we find sustenance.
