Dreaming Of Sheep In Navajo Country
A dramatic reduction of livestock on the Navajo Reservation in the 1930s - mainly sheep, goats, and horses - was an ambitious attempt by the federal government to eliminate overgrazing on an arid landscape and to better the lives of the people who lived there. This title offers a fresh interpretation of the history of Navajo (Dine) pastoralism.
