Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Blood Lilies
Mi-yah-tis means the Ugly One, and no one had ever cried out against the injustice of the Cree woman's naming. She was entitled to it in its application to her lack of physical grace.
Then came the medicine-dreaming of a name for the little brave that was in the tepee of Wolf Runner. All through one summer night a medi cine-man slept on the cone of a sand-hill, and, slumbering, listened for the dream-name the spirits would bring for the copper-tinged babe that lay swathed in a-thick padding of softest muskeg moss.
