Bad Indians (10th Anniversary Edition) - A Tribal Memoir (Hardcover)

Newly expanded, a memoir hailed as essential by the likes of Leslie Marmon Silko and ELLE magazine Bad Indians-part tribal history, part lyric and intimate memoir-is essential reading for anyone seeking to learn about California Indian history, past and present. Widely adopted in classrooms and book clubs throughout the United States, Bad Indians-now reissued in significantly expanded form for its 10th anniversary-plumbs ancestry, survivance, and the cultural memory of Native California. In this best-selling, now-classic memoir, Deborah A. Miranda tells stories of her Ohlone/Costanoan-Esselen family and the experiences of California Indians more widely through oral histories, newspaper clippings, anthropological recordings, personal reflections, and poems. This anniversary edition-the first time the book has seen release in hardcover format-includes new poems and essays, as well as an extensive afterword. Wise, indignant, and playful all at once, Bad Indians is a beautiful and devastating read, and an indispensable book for anyone seeking a more just telling of American history.
