Adopted By Indians

For twelve years, Thomas Jefferson Mayfield lived among the Choinumne Indians of California's San Joaquin Valley, playing alongside their children, hunting and fishing with them, eating their food, and wearing their clothes. He kept this remarkable secret for nearly sixty years. Based on his true story, Adopted by Indians offers young readers a rare and intimate glimpse into traditional California Indian life and the lasting bonds of friendship and family across cultures.
