Author Boye Lafayette De Mente has used these key words to reveal not only the history but the extraordinary culture and wisdom of the Navajos. Far from being simple savages when they first encountered white men in the 1500s, they had a long tradition of poetry and healing that equaled that of European nations. The book also details the virtual extinction of the Navajos in the 1860s by the U.S. military and their comback from this \"Fearing Time\"--an amazing saga of American arrogance, ignorance and inhuman treamtment of an extraordinary people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Boye Lafayette De Mente\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1452882738\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781452882734\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/24\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Boye Lafayette De Mente","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45933936574719,"sku":"9781452882734","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d6f54646-91a8-465a-8696-63e79dbaf17b.jpg?v=1721789950","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/arizonas-lords-of-the-land-boye-lafayette-de-mente-9781452882734","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
