271 nors at the time the events transpired who might not want to be identifi ed. He does this again with a fourteenyearold victim of sexual abuse (76). Troublesome, too, is that although Edwards addresses some of the harsh results of government policy for Native Americans, he perpetuates a stereotype. Th e only individual in the book identifi ed as Native American is Al, “handsome and charming, with dark American Indian good looks” who liked to “drink, smoke, and play cards for money” (121). If you seek a nostalgic stroll through a past that might be yours (much of this book refl ects my experiences growing up at nearly the same time in a similar South Dakota community), you will enjoy this book. If you are an outsider by way of class, gender, or ethnic background, there may not be much you can relate to in Natives of a Dry Place. Steven J. Bucklin University of South Dakota

看不见的美丽：雾和遗忘的变化。凯尔·博尔特的回忆录

271 nors 在事件发生时谁可能不想被识别。他对一名 14 岁的性虐待受害者再次这样做 (76)。同样令人烦恼的是，尽管爱德华兹谈到了政府对美洲原住民政策的一些严厉结果，但他却延续了一种刻板印象。书中唯一被认定为美洲原住民的人是阿尔，“英俊迷人，有着深色的美洲印第安人长相”，喜欢“为了钱而喝酒、抽烟和打牌”（121）。如果您想在可能属于您的过去（这本书的大部分内容反映了我几乎同时在类似的南达科他州社区长大的经历）中怀旧地漫步，您会喜欢这本书。如果您在阶级、性别或种族背景方面是局外人，那么您可能无法与《干地原住民》中的很多人产生共鸣。史蒂文J。
