Lolami In Tusayan is a historical fiction novel written by Clara Kern Bayliss and first published in 1903. The story is set in the late 1800s and follows the journey of a young Navajo girl named Lolami who is kidnapped by a group of Hopi Indians and taken to their village in Tusayan (present-day Arizona). Lolami is forced to adapt to the Hopi way of life and faces many challenges as she tries to find her place in the new community. She struggles to learn their language, customs, and beliefs while also trying to hold onto her own Navajo identity. Throughout the novel, Lolami encounters various characters who help her along the way, including a kind Hopi woman named Kya and a young Hopi boy named Koki. Together, they navigate the complexities of life in Tusayan and work to bridge the cultural divide between their two tribes. The novel explores themes of identity, culture, and the importance of understanding and respecting different ways of life. It provides a unique perspective on the history of the Navajo and Hopi tribes in the American Southwest and sheds light on the challenges faced by Native Americans during a time of great change and upheaval. Overall, Lolami In Tusayan is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers readers a glimpse into a fascinating and often overlooked chapter of American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
