I have just finished it and thought it was very good. I wasn't put off by the visionary section towards the end - after all, most religious beliefs can look a bit odd to those who don't share them. I also thought that Welch avoided the "noble savage" portrayal of Fools Crow and his people that a non Native American could easily have fallen for.

An interesting experience and a good choice. Thanks, Belle!
