Review:
"What gives this book stature . . . is Elk's quiet courage in defying tradition and finding his own place in his tribe and in life." -"New York Times"
"This is a moving novel. . . . There is a fine sense of place, the wide plains, the canyons, the brushy gullies; a deep insight into the life of the Cheyennes and their firm and understand-ing way with their young people." -"New York Herald Tribune Book Review"
"Mari Sandoz has written a beautiful story that is bright with warmth, humor, and love of life. It will provide rich and rewarding reading not only for older teens and young adults but also for grownups with a taste for uncomplicated goodness." -"Christian Science Monitor"
