Teeto Hoonod, a Nez Perce warrior, and his people desperately try to escape from the United States Army in 1877 in a 1700-mile chase through the Northwest
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
The escape of the Nez Perce Indians from the U.S. Army in 1877a classic in retreat tacticsis presented here in fictionalized form from the inside of that march. Through the narrative of the English-speaking Teeto Hoonod, we feel some of the pain of the Nez Perce as they leave their ancestral home in the Pacific Northwest and try to reach Can ada over a 1700-mile route. The author does well in showing the culture of this tribe and its leading personalities. What is lacking is a sense of distance for the trek and a full-bodied Chief Jospeh, their famous leader. Nevertheless, stu dents will enjoy this in conjunction with factual presentations, and adult readers will find it an evocative portrait of an honest people faced with protecting their way of life. W. Keith McCoy, Dowdell Lib., South Amboy, N.J.
