Review
''A powerfully felt narrative of survival and warfare in the gold-digger slums and Indian emcampments of northern California.''--William Kittredge, Northwest Review
''Epic in scope and groundbreaking in its blending of fiction and fact, Life Amongst The Modocs gives the read an intensely felt and unforgettable portrait of the birth of modern California. Life Amongst The Modocs is a highly recommended addition to any Native American studies or Western American History reading list.'' --Midwest Book Review
