Etat : FINE. First printing. Published two years after his identity as an American Indian was shown to be false, he still claims in this book that the "shadow" in the title refers to the fact that he was adopted and that "the greatest mystery of my own life is my identity."

We learn little of Highwater except that he believes himself to be the misunderstood victim of mean critics." Illustrated with photographs. 236 pp. Very near fine in a like dustjacket.…
