ISBN: 9781467967488 / Angielski / Miękka / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For many people the Southwest is a vast desert of unexplored land and Indian tribes. While living and working on the Navajo reservation, the author discovered the richness of the area and its people. Working as a public health/school nurse, she kept a daily journal of reservation life and weekend travels. When sending out group e-mails, the responses of family and friends confirmed her suspicion that the American traveler had only knowledge limited to Sedona, the Grand Canyon and Phoenix.

When Billie Timmons went to work for Mr. Goodnight in 1892, Texas was undergoing a rapid transition from open range to fences. But around...
