My dissertation research was among the Dakota Indians and I continued research among Indians. In retirement I am writing fiction about Southwestern Indians, but my first novel was about the prehistory of Cahokia Mounds since I live less than a mile from the site. The novel views ancient Cahokia through the eyes of a young woman brought to the site as a servant wife and for her knowledge of languages. The title of the novel is ”JOURNEY TO THE SUN”. I have a non-fiction work for the young reader, ”ANCIENT SPLENDOR OF PREHISTORIC CAHOKIA”.
