Mark N. Trahant

I am an independent journalist and author. My most recent work is The Last Great Battle of the Indian Wars. It's about the relationship between Sen. Henry M. Jackson and Forrest Gerard, that produced a remarkable era of legislation to improve the lot for American Indians and Alaska Natives. I am also a Twitter poet ... every day I write a news poem in under 140 characters. You can find my work @newsrimes4lines. I live on the Fort Hall Indian Reservation in southeastern Idaho. My official biography is at my web site, trahantreports.com
