Here in one volume are Mari Sandoz''s reminiscences of life in the Sandhills country; a study of the two Sitting Bulls (the Hunkpapa and the Oglala) and other Indian pieces; a novelette, Bone Joe and the Smokin'' Woman; and nine short stories, mostly with a rural setting, including The Vine," her first to be published.
