Program Description

Event Details

Read & discuss This Tender Land by William Kent Krueger.

In the summer of 1932, on the banks of Minnesota's Gilead River, the Lincoln Indian Training School is a pitiless place where Native American children, forcibly separated from their parents, are sent to be educated. It is also home to Odie O’Banion, a lively orphan boy whose exploits constantly earn him the superintendent’s wrath. Odie and his brother, Albert, are the only white faces among the hundreds of Native American children at the school.

Books are available one month before the discussion. This book discussion takes place at Fox & Turtle Restaurant. Registration is required.
