You will strive

To make this day

The best in your life.

"…a book which seems to have grown right out of the Arizona earth—anecdotal, almost artless in its directness, but having the impact of reality…a flavorsome re-creation of things past in the life of a friendly, generous people."— The New York Times

"George Webb's gentle recollections of his childhood and Pima Indian lifeways will doubtless endure forever. This deeply moving autobiography is the perfect introduction for younger Pimas to their culture and history." —Arizona Highways

"This extraordinarily pleasant and amiable narrative wakes vivid an ancient and happy way of life"—Oliver LaFarge
