Why read it?
1 author picked This Indian Kid as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
After being transported to a vivid, foreboding past by Eddie Chuculate’s atmospheric short story “Galveston Bay, 1826,” I was eager to get a hold of the author’s new nonfiction account of his own coming of age in Oklahoma and the path he took to journalism and storytelling.
