Synopsis: Over the years, Michael Dorris award-winning anthropologist, nonfiction writer, and bestselling novelist has written essays on a remarkably wide range of topics reflective of the many hats he has worn: father, son, and husband; scholar, professor, and student; writer; critic; activist; traveler; and observer. His pieces have appeared everywhere from the "New York Times" to "Ladies' Home Journal" to "Booklist." In "Paper Trail," Dorris reminisces about the mother and grandmother who raised him, recalling the time he and his mother went backstage in Louisville to meet Tyrone Power. He wrestles with the painful recognition of his adopted son's affliction with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. He gives keen insights into contemporary Native American issues. And he explores the backroads of America, all the while entertaining, inspiring, and engaging us with his humor, anger, and awe. A remarkably diverse collection; one that offers the unique perspectives of Michael Dorris. 'By turns charming, provocative, impassioned and deeply moving' NY Times Book Review Price:
