Poignant and lyrical, House Built on Ashes contemplates the promises, limitations,

it evokes larger political, cultural, and social realities. It speaks to what America

boundaries. But it speaks, as well, to the redemptive power of beauty and its life-

Notes from a Wounded Place
By Rilla Askew
Foreword by Susan Kates
In her first nonfiction collection, award-winning novelist Rilla Askew casts an
unflinching eye on American history, both past and present. As she traverses a line
between memoir and social commentary, Askew places herselfand indeed all
Americansin the role of witness to uncomfortable truths about who we are.
Through nine linked essays, Most American: Notes from a Wounded Place evokes
a vivid impression of the United States: police violence and gun culture, ethnic
cleansing and denied history, spellbinding landscapes and brutal weather. To render
these conditions in the particulars of place, Askew spotlights the complex history
of her home state. From the Trail of Tears to the Tulsa Race Riot to the Murrah

The Taken
True Stories of the Sinaloa Drug War
By Javier Valdez Crdenas
Translated and with an introduction by Everard Meade
A massive wave of violence has rippled across Mexico over the past decade. In the
western state of Sinaloa, the birthplace of modern drug trafficking, ordinary citizens
live in constant fear of being takenkidnapped or held against their will by armed
men, whether criminals, police, or both. This remarkable collection of firsthand
accounts by prize-winning journalist Javier Valdez Crdenas provides a uniquely
human perspective on life in Sinaloa during the drug war.
The reality of the Mexican drug war, a conflict fueled by uncertainty and fear, is far
more complex than the images conjured in popular imagination. Often missing from

FOLSOM ARREDONDO
most ruthless and effective leaders
Arredondo
Last Spanish Ruler of Texas and Northeastern New Spain
By Bradley Folsom
In this biography of Joaqun de Arredondo, historian Bradley Folsom brings to
life one of the most influential and ruthless leaders in North American history.
Arredondo (17761837), a Bourbon loyalist who governed Texas and the
other interior provinces of northeastern New Spain during the Mexican War of
Independence, contended with attacks by revolutionaries, U.S. citizens, generals
who had served in Napoleons army, pirates, and various American Indian groups,
all attempting to wrest control of the region. Often resorting to violence to deal
with the provinces problems, Arredondo was for ten years the most powerful
official in northeastern New Spain.
Folsoms lively account shows the challenges of governing a vast and inhospitable
region and provides insight into nineteenth-century military tactics and Spanish

In the Battle of Medina, the bloodiest battle ever fought in Texas, he crushed the
insurgents and followed his victory with a purge that reduced Texass population by
half. Over the following eight years, Arredondo faced fresh challenges to Spanish
sovereignty ranging from Comanche and Apache raids to continued American
incursion. In response, Arredondo ignored his superiors and ordered his soldiers to
terrorize those who disagreed with him.

Franciscan Frontiersmen
How Three Adventurers Charted the West
By Robert A. Kittle
Pious and scholarly, the Franciscan friars Pedro Font, Juan Cresp, and Francisco
Garcs may at first seem improbable heroes. Beginning in Spain, their adventures
encompassed the remote Sierra Gorda highlands of Mexico, the deserts of the
American Southwest, and coastal California. Each mans journey played an
important role in Spains eighteenth-century conquest of the Pacific coast, but today
their names and deeds are little known. Drawing on the diaries and correspondence
of Font, Cresp, and Garcs, as well as his own exhaustive field research, Robert A.
Kittle has woven a seamless narrative detailing the friars striking accomplishments.
Starting with a harrowing transatlantic voyage, all three traveled through uncharted
lands and found themselves beset by raiding Indians, marauding bears, starvation,
and scurvy. Along the way, they made invaluable notes on indigenous peoples, flora

Reservation Politics
Historical Trauma, Economic Development, and Intratribal Conflict
By Raymond I. Orr
For American Indians, tribal politics are paramount. They determine the standards
for tribal enrollment, guide negotiations with outside governments, and help set
collective economic and cultural goals. But how, asks Raymond I. Orr, has history
shaped the American Indian political experience? By exploring how different
tribes politics and internal conflicts have evolved over time, Reservation Politics
offers rare insight into the role of historical experience in the political lives of
American Indians.
By engaging a topic often avoided in political science and American Indian studies,

Crow Jesus
Personal Stories of Native Religious Belonging
Edited by Mark Clatterbuck
Foreword by Jace Weaver
Crow Christianity speaks in many voices, and in the pages of Crow Jesus, these
voices tell a complex story of Christian faith and Native tradition combining
and reshaping each other to create a new and richly varied religious identity. In
this collection of narratives, fifteen members of the Apsalooke (Crow) Nation
in southeastern Montana and three non-Native missionaries to the reservation
describe how Christianity has shaped their lives, their families, and their community
through the years.
Among the speakers are elders and young people, women and men, pastors and
laypeople, devout traditionalists and skeptics of the indigenous cultural way. Taken
together, the narratives reveal the startling variety and sharp contradictions that

In Crow Jesus, Clatterbuck explores contemporary Native Christianity by listening
as indigenous voices narrate their own stories on their own terms. His collection
tells the larger story of a tribe that has adopted Christian beliefs and practices in
such a way that simple, unqualified designations of religious belongingwhether

Webs of Kinship
Family in Northern Cheyenne Nationhood
By Christina Gish Hill
Many stories that non-Natives tell about Native people emphasize human suffering,
the inevitability of loss, and eventual extinction, whether physical or cultural.
But the stories Northern Cheyennes tell about themselves emphasize survival,
connectedness, and commitment to land and community. In writing Webs of
Kinship, anthropologist Christina Gish Hill has worked with government records
and other historical documents, as well as the oral testimonies of todays Northern
Cheyennes, to emphasize the ties of family, rather than the ambitions of individual
leaders, as the central impetus behind the nations efforts to establish a reservation
in its Tongue River homeland.
Hill focuses on the people who lived alongside notable Cheyennes such as Dull
