The smoke of a burning hogan --
To the place where water runs like fingers out of a hill --
The little mother of the Navajos --
Asthon Sosi's Paiutes --
The year of war and death --
"We'll go on --
" --
Dancing east of the sunset --
The pollen blessing.

The Wetherills are by now an almost classic family. In connection with the land of mesas, cliff dwellings, Basket Makers and surviving Indian life, this volume affords a continuous line of their history in this desert country.
