The Talking Leaves

"The Talking Leaves: An Indian Story" by William O. Stoddard

William Osborn Stoddard was an American journalist, inventor, and author of memoirs, novels, poetry, and children's books. In this book, Stoddard takes a look at two warring Native American tribes, the Apache and the Lapian. When members of each tribe come across each other, they find that they're much more mirrored than expected. Unfortunately, that connection can be hard to see in the midst of conflict.
