But over a century ago, they were nearly wiped out by the Long Walk, a forced removal of most of the DineÌ people to a military-controlled reservation in New Mexico. The summer of 2018 marked the 150th anniversary of the Navajos' return to their homelands. One Navajo family and their community decided to honor that return. Edison Eskeets and his family organized a ceremonial run from Spider Rock in Canyon de Chelly, Arizona, to Santa FeÌ, New Mexico, in order to deliver a message and to honor the survivors of the Long Walk. Both exhilarating and punishing, Send a Runner tells the story of a Navajo family using the power of running to honor their ancestors and the power of history to explain why the Long Walk happened. From these forces, they might also seek the vision of how the DineÌ--their people--will have a future."--Publisher's website. 600 10 $a Eskeets, Edison. 600 10 $a Eskeets, Edison $x Family. 650 0 $a Navajo Long Walk, 1863-1867. 650 0 $a Navajo Indians $x History. 650 0 $a Navajo Indians $v Biography. 650 0 $a Runners (Sports) $v Biography. 650 0 $a Long-distance runners $v Biography. 650 0 $a Ultra running. 650 0 $a Indians of North America $z Southwest, New. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Kristofic, Jim, $d 1982- $e author. 941 $a 5 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909064434.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20220303013304.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20211030010649.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20210702015537.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210504014117.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C30C6898AC9F11EBAF53C5C920ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
