## Description

Rez Life [Treuer, David] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Rez Life

Review: Engaging and Enlightening - I am not Native but as a public health professional focusing on rural health issues, I am constantly looking for resources that provide an honest and balanced view of rural life, particularly for the American Indian and Alaskan Native populations. Rez Life is such a book. It is a book that was delightful to read, that opened my eyes to the aspects of reservation life (both good and bad) and provided a substantial dose of history in a very palatable fashion. I've already recommended it to others and I do plan to send my $ 1.00 (probably more) to Helen (Bryan) Johnson to thank her for being a part of history. I challenge other readers to do the same. David Treuer is a wonderful writer and I will be reading more of his books. My thanks to him for such a significant contribution to the literary world.
Review: Excellent Look at Life on Indian Reservations Today and in the Past - Very informative and evocative perspective on life on Indian reservations today. I found David Treuer's book to be very eye-opening and surprising. He goes into the history of various aspects of Native American life, particularly in the Ojibwe tribe, including housing, poverty, the gaming industry, fishing and hunting rights, and family. A great look at what life is like for many Indians today, and how conditions evolved over the past centuries. He has a great explanation of the impact of the various treaties that the federal government made and broke, and the impact of the mismanagement by the Bureau of Indian Affairs. A great read, especially for the portraits that Treuer paints of his family members and friends.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Look at Life on Indian Reservations Today and in the Past

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ astonishing reality on American Indian life
*by L***S on August 9, 2013*

Finally a book on reservation life written from the inside. Well-researched historic overview and terrific narrative of the complicated reality of the Indian and white interactions. Community and family stories blend together with treaties, laws, rights, privileges and federal, state and tribal negotiations. Although primarily focused on the Ojibwa it portrays the pan-Indian dance within their colonized trap and opportunities. This amazing combination between a novel and historical facts gives the reader an accessible insight in what it was and is to be an American Indian. Treuer's depiction of rez life is harsh and beautiful at the same time. According to Peter Nabokov it is "a courageously intimate memoir of family life and community survival ... it deftly sashays between gritty everyday realities and their well-researched historical contexts and cultural resonances through the magically readable kind of nonfiction that perhaps only a novelist could pull off ... destined to be a classic." I cannot agree more.
