Mankiller by Wilma Mankiller
In this spiritual, moving autobiography, Wilma Mankiller, former Chief of the Cherokee Nation and a recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, tells of her own history while also honoring and recounting the history of the Cherokees. Mankiller's life unfolds against the backdrop of the dawning of the American Indian civil rights struggle, and her book becomes a quest to reclaim and preserve the great Native American values that form the foundation of our nation. Now featuring a new Afterword to the 2000 paperback reissue, this edition of Mankiller completely updates the author's private and public life after 1994 and explores the recent political struggles of the Cherokee Nation.
Michael Wallis is the widely acclaimed author of Pretty Boy and the best-selling book Oil Man. He is currently collaborating with Chief Wilma Mankiller on a book about her life and the story of the Cherokee people. Born in the 66-town of St. Louis, Wallis now lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma, a short distance from the Mother Road.
