"Hillerman, the author of the wonderful Navajo police mysteries, talks easily about his life beginning in rural Oklahoma, through WWII Europe and on to writing about the Southwest. My version is extraordinarily better as Hillerman himself narrates the audio book. The book is wonderful on all counts - it gives a clear view of life on the lower Plains in the Dustbowl years, the hardships and the delights. His view of the U.S Army 'Intelligence' during WWII is not flattering and the book is loaded w/ examples. Then he explains how he learned to write, a fascinating chapter in anyones life. This is a wholy satisfying book. Highly recommend!"
