About the Book

Larry Spotted Crow Mann's groundbreaking novel, The Mourning Road to Thanksgiving is the 2015 WordCraft Circle of Honors Winner: Best Young Adult Novel of the Year! This unforgettable story continues to inspire, educate and challenge the notion of a holiday engrained in American history.

From laughter to tears, this novel will inspire you and reveal the endless possibilities when we open our hearts. Haunted by his childhood, and furious about the treatment of his people since the landing of Mayflower; a 40-year-old Native American man sets off on an unforgettable quest to heal himself and Native people everywhere.

A heart wrenching, daring and sometimes humorous journey that goes far beyond a litany of hardship and loss and will reveal the healing spirit within all of humankind.
