American Indian Ghost Stories of the Southwest is the first book of American Indian ghost stories told by American Indians, and written by an American Indian. These stories are not second hand accounts. These stories are true stories told to the author by present-day American Indians who have directly witnessed helpful spirits, and horrific hauntings throughout the states of Arizona and New Mexico. American Indian Ghost Stories of the Southwest will take the reader on a journey of exploration into the remote deserts of fear, the canyons of mystery, the battlefields of opposing forces--and ultimately into a vast, spiritual, sometimes eerie world of shadows and light. Put aside disbelief, inhale deeply the scent of mountain sage, lay restfully upon a finely woven Navajo blanket, and listen. Listen to the stories of those who will tell of a world of dreams made real--the world of American Indian ghost stories -- Back cover
