"This sampler is a good introduction to a number of writers and to the kind of work being done by American Indian poets. Kenny has chosen carefully and well. The work is varied, but the poems have in common the celebration, without romanticising, of heritage and the power of remembering." -- Joseph Bruchac, American Indian Quarterly.
