Flint & Feather: The Life and Times of E. Pauline Johnson, Tekahionwake - Gray, Charlotte

Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear appears unread; Why does Pauline Johnson, the 19th century daughter of a Mohawk chief and an English gentlewoman, continue to haunt our collective imagination? Complex and talented, she was a native rights advocate ahead of her time; a lyric poet who performed vaudevillian skits; a New Woman who wrote for The Mother's Magazine; and an incurable romantic who never married. The arc of her life unfolds against the history of a country coming confidently into a new century, a country prepared to push native peoples aside in the name of progress.
