Description
Corbett Mack (1892-1974) was born of mixed ancestry, Northern Paiute and white. A generation before, his tribe had brought forth the prophet Wovoka, whose Ghost Dance swept the Indian world. But after the last Native American uprisings had been brutally crushed, Mack and his fellow Paiute lived in a harsh and bitter world. First published in 1996, Hittman's account uses Mack's own words to tell the story of a traumatized life that typified his generation.
