"Buffalo Spirits is a tale of loss, of longing for home and the connections that bind two people to a single land - and to one another." "Searching for a home that no longer exists, Chicago journalist Rebecca Kluger returns to the Great Plains, a land ravished by cyclical droughts, misguided agriculture, depletion of non-renewable water resources and now the scourge of cutthroat agribusiness. She finds her childhood farm has become a sprawling cattle feedlot. Rebecca's journey also takes her into the American Southwest as she searches for her missing younger brother, also deeply affected by the loss of the family farm. Eventually, when she finds him, the pair journeys to Oklahoma Indian Territory in search of the tribe whose spirits have become inexplicably fused with their own." "Threaded within Rebecca's narrative are the musings and wisdom of Gentle Wind, Rebecca's childhood fantasy companion and "spirit sister" who once lived atop a sacred ridge on the same land that Rebecca's family came to call home." "Gentle Wind takes the reader along on her own heart-rending journey from a spiritual and symbiotic existence on the Plains to the forced removal and dispossession of her people."--BOOK JACKET.
