Riassunto

This volume of poetry stands as a penetrating monumental scrutiny of the Chippewa Indian and his present, as seen through the eyes of an aged Chippewa man. Moccasin Trails offers observations on the rape of our land, the Christian religion, personal and group integrity, and a sensitive examination of the current social conditions and moral trends. Echoing the wisdom of other Chippewa sages, Anishinabe Nichi, the patriarch, contemplates the past, present and future of his own against a background of misconceptions and false images of the Chippewa. With a true poets eye, Nunemaker explores intimate glimpses into the real human being, discovering in beautifully flowing and brightly colored language that the true worth of our nation is to be found in the humility of our citizens.
