'Neither Wolf Nor Dog is a book of revelation . . . a true-life fable and a provocative call . . . remarkable'Robert Plant
With an introduction by Robert Plant
Against an unflinching backdrop of 90s reservation life in the western Dakotas, Neither Wolf Nor Dog tells the story of two men, one white and one Native American Indian, connected by their own understandings of life yet struggling to find a common voice.
As they journey together through small Native American Indian towns and down forgotten roads where the whisperings of the wind speak of ancestral voices, these two men will travel beyond myth and stereotype, revealing an America few people ever get to see.
