People of the Blue Water

"Flora Gregg left her Oklahoma home in 1900, answering a call for teachers on an Indian reservation in northern Arizona...Her book ...is a simple but strangely moving document. She is good at description and a keen observer of people and customs." Journal of Arizona History "Gives a vivid picture, not only of tribal peoples in transition, but of the motives and methods of a dedicated, compassionate teacher in an era of forced Indian assimilation." Books of the Southwest "Delightful reading about an exotic life in a stupendous natural setting." New York Times
