       -Lakota author's search for identity and his reckoning 
       with colonialism's violence against Indigenous humans, 
       animals, and land."--|cProvided by publisher. 
520    "Thomas C. Gannon's Birding While Indian spans more than 
       fifty years of childhood walks and adult road trips to 
       deliver, via a compendium of birds recorded and revered, 
       the author's life as a part-Lakota inhabitant of the Great
       Plains. Great Horned Owl, Sandhill Crane, Dickcissel: such
       species form a kind of rosary, a corrective to the 
       rosaries that evoke Gannon's traumatic time in an Indian 
       boarding school in South Dakota, his mother's tears when 
       coworkers called her "squaw," and the violent erasure 
       colonialism demanded of the Indigenous humans, animals, 
       and land of the United States. Birding has always been 
       Gannon's escape and solace. He later found similar solace 
       in literature, particularly by Native authors. He draws on
       both throughout this expansive, hilarious, and humane 
       memoir. An acerbic observer--of birds, of the aftershocks 
       of history, and of human nature--Gannon navigates his 
       obsession with the ostensibly objective avocation of 
       birding and his own mixed-blood subjectivity, searching 
       for that elusive Snowy Owl and his own identity. The 
       result is a rich reflection not only on one man's life but
       on the transformative power of building a deeper 
       relationship with the natural world."--|cProvided by
