It is important to me to encourage the welfare
of the beautiful indigenous people of my country. For this reason, I include
Native American characters in my books when appropriate, facets of my stories
that place me on joyous research studies about them—about their histories,
their cultures, and their contributions to American society. Today and for fitting
days in the future, I will post the cover and short description of a book about
American Indians from my library and other sources. I hope they will spark interest
in, concern for, and support of Native Americans on the part of my friends who
read my posts.Today’s feature is “TOUCHES THE SKY,” a great and passionate yarn authored by JAMES CALVIN SCHAAP: The Lakota and Dutch settlers clash on the mid-country plains during America’s western expansion. The settlers charge the Lakota wrongly with the death of a white settler, a situation that not only places the honor of the Lakota in peril, but also their freedom, home, and way of life.
