From the dust jacket- The man who killed the deer was Martiniano a Pueblo Indian. Like many of his tribe he was sent away as a youth to an 'away-school' where he learned the ways of the white man. But when he returned Martiniano found himself outcast from his tribe when he refused to participate in the ancient tribal dances to wear a blanket to cut the heels off his shoes or to let his hair grow long. When he married Flowers Playing a beautiful girl from the distant Ute tribe his estrangement from his pueblo grew more acute but not as acute as that fateful day when he shot and killed a deer on the government reservation. This precipitated swift action by the Government against the Pueblo which had been trying for many years to regain its sacred Dawn Lake in the region of the watershed under the Government's protection.
