Description

First published in 1954 and long out of print, this novel of pre-Hispanic Indian life in the Southwest combines the authenticity of an anthropological report with the suspense of a mystery novel. The author, best known as an anthropologist during his lifetime, is now recognized as a major Native American novelist. Hitherto virtually unknown, “Runner in the Sun” is sure to take its place next to McNickle’s “The Surrounded, ” also available from UNM Press, as a classic of Native American fiction.
