A blend of travel and legend from the Flathead country of western Montana, written as the reservation was being opened to settlement. Sanders retells the stories of the Salish people, describes enchanted lakes and the man for whom Lake McDonald was named, visits the Catholic missions of the Northwest and recounts tales of the buffalo days and the people of the leaves.
An elegiac record of Montana’s Native traditions, written with sympathy though in the romantic idiom of 1910. Download the free EPUB.
