Harris : A Commanche Life (American
Indian Lives) by Ladonna Harris, H. Henrietta Stockel
(Editor)
With grace and quiet dignity, Native American activist
LaDonna Harris recounts the highlights of her remarkable life. Born on a
Comanche allotment in southern Oklahoma at the onset of the Depression,
she defied convention by marrying Fred Harris, an ambitious white law
student with a promising political future. Later, as the wife of a U.S.
senator, she utilized her considerable people and campaigning skills to
forge her own extraordinary career as an advocate for American Indian
causes. Insisting that her own personal success has its roots in the
life-sustaining Comanche values taught to her by her revered
grandparents, LaDonna extols the virtues of family loyalty, communal
responsibility, and respect for all persons. This brief, unpretentious
autobiography provides a rare insider's glimpse into Native American
culture and politics. Margaret Flanagan
