The Man Who Killed the Deer Reviews

By far the finest novel of American Indian life I have ever read. * Saturday Review of Literature *
[Waters's] long and wide experience... has given him an insight to the ways of the Indian, perhaps not exceeded by any other novelist. * Los Angeles Times *
It will live as one of the important pieces of literature on the American Indian. * San Francisco Chronicle *
A rich fusion of myth and reality, both a detailed rendering of Pueblo Indian rituals, ceremonies and beliefs and an account of the Indians' political struggle to get back their ancestral lands. * Westways *
