The
Shadow Dancer
by Margaret Coel (Fiction)
Book Description: Margaret Coel's mysteries, set on the Wind River Reservation,
have been acclaimed by Tony Hillerman, who called her "a master." Now she
presents her newest and most engrossing tale.
James Sherwood, aka "Orlando," has resurrected the old Shadow Dance
religion, having his followers dance for days at a time for the promise
of an Indian paradise. For Orlando and his followers, nothing must delay
the coming of the New World-not even the investigation of Ben Holden's
death. Arapaho attorney Vicky Holden and her friend, Father John O'Malley,
believe that Orlando has more to do with it than he lets on. But to get
the proof they need, they will have to learn his dance.

One
Hundred Years of Old Man Sage: An Arapaho Life (Studies in the Anthropology
of North American Indians Series)
by Jeffrey D. Anderson
Book Description: Sherman Sage (ca. 1844–1943) was an unforgettable
Arapaho man who witnessed profound change in his community and was one
of the last to see the Plains black with buffalo. As a young warrior, Sage
defended his band many times, raided enemy camps, saw the first houses
go up in Denver, was present at Fort Laramie for the signing of the 1868
treaty, and witnessed Crazy Horse's surrender. Later, he visited the Ghost
Dance prophet Wovoka and became a link in the spread of the Ghost Dance
religion to other Plains Indian tribes. As an elder, Old Man Sage was a
respected, vigorous leader, walking miles to visit friends and family even
in his nineties. One of the most interviewed Native Americans in the Old
West, Sage was a wellspring of information for both Arapahos and outsiders
about older tribal customs.
Anthropologist Jeffrey D. Anderson gathered information about Sage's
long life from archives, interviews, recollections, and published sources
and has here woven it into a compelling biography. We see different sides
of Sage—how he followed a traditional Arapaho life path; what he learned
about the Rocky Mountains and Plains; what he saw and did as outsiders
invaded the Arapahos' homeland in the nineteenth century; how he adjusted,
survived, and guided other Arapahos during the early reservation years;
and how his legacy lives on today. The remembrances of Old Man Sage's relatives
and descendants of friends make apparent that his vision and guidance were
not limited to his lifetime but remain vital today in the Northern Arapaho
tribe.
Jeffrey D. Anderson is an associate professor of anthropology at Colby
College. He is the author of The Four Hills of Life: Northern Arapaho Knowledge
and Life Movement (Nebraska 2001).
