SKIRIKI is a novel that captures the essence of the Native American experience. Author Ed Calandro employs a remarkably unique approach in this story which draws the reader into the folklore & history of the American Indian Culture. The depth of the characters paints a fascinating portrait of this continent's original occupants that goes beyond the narrow stereotypes of the past. This is not a Cowboy & Indian story but rather a tale of a tribe's struggle for survival during the turbulent mid-1800s & later on, the surprising effect of one white man's life & the destiny of a small Oklahoma town during the late 1950s. The story is fiction, but the author states that many years of traveling throughout the Great Plains plus research & interviews with the leaders of the various tribes present accurate accounts of their heritage. Mr. Calandro provides a riveting work of fiction spiced with little-known folklore & historical fact which compels the reader to keep turning the pages.
