About this title

Synopsis

Sinclair Browning, in this book Enju, offers a critical perspective , an honest and sometimes painful look, and a delightfully readable bit of folklore in a too-seldom-told history of the Aravarpa Apache chief Eskiminzim. Deep in the shadow of Geronimo, Eskiminzim tirelessly labored for peace between his people and white men in the Arizona Territory's volatile late 1800s Ms. Browning;s history has a broader value. It has a moral. If the names and places were different, this story could be a lesson for nations and people everywhere trying to live together in peace, with their different cultures, religions, loves, hates and individual personalities.

About the Author

Sinclair Browning spent her childhood on her belly in dry arroyos hunting sand rubies, converting her propane tank into a stagecoach and exploring the Sonoran desert on her horse. Summers were spent on the family ranch in southern Arizona. 

One of five nominees (the only writer) for the Arizona Arts Award in 2000, Browning's mysteries have been nominated for Shamus and Barry Awards. Publishers Weekly compared her America's Best to the "heroic war fiction of John Toland and Leon Uris." A former writing instructor she has also been a judge for the Edgar, the Shamus and the St. Martin's First awards. 

Her work covers a broad spectrum: mysteries, thrillers, historical fiction and a a metaphysical novel. Her nonfiction includes spiritual books on afterlife gifts, signs we receive from people we have lost who assure us that their spirits are indeed alive and well.
