Klappentext A memoir of a father's pain, humor, and healing as he learns to embrace a new masculinity "down West." How does a white male, raised in the hardscrabble culture of the West, learn to raise a young daughter on his own? In this unconventional memoir, contemporary Native American scholar Kenneth Lincoln relates his struggle to embrace a new masculinity in the late twentieth century.
