For me, as an enrolled Comanche who happens to have a non-American white Jewish father, the questions raised by these books seem interesting but I wonder to what extent do they discuss the incredible differences between tribes and while "blood" may be enough, or indeed all, necessary to make a person "Indian" in some cultures in other, more matriarchal, groups up-bringing plays a far more crucial role in the question of identity.
