FEATURED REVIEW

Three Day Road by Joseph Boyden

This riveting book intertwines two different stories: The plight of the Oji-Cree Indians in Canada in the beginning of the 20th century and the trenches of World War I and the use of Indian soldiers as snipers and sharpshooters. Based on the true story of Ojibwa war hero Francis Pegahmagabow, it is a best seller in Canada and is short listed for the Canadian First Novel Award. Reviewed by Reference Librarian Jane Brown
