"....[B]orn of a Creek Indian mother and a mariachi-playing Mexican father...Mendoza's saga of growing up in and around Tulsa, while swimming his way to maturity in confusing cross-currents of Native American, Chicano, and white American cultural pressures, is truly the story of this country's past, present, and future....Mendoza has told his story vividly and cleanly, creating an illuminating tale filled with poignant loss, dauntless courage and corny, heartland humor that may be foreign to most, but is ultimately as American as this country's multicolored flag."Mendoza, Vincent L. is the author of 'Son of Two Bloods' with ISBN 9780803282575 and ISBN 0803282575.
