Let's Flip the Script: An African American Discourse on Language, Literature, and Learning. Detroit: Wayne State University Press, 1996.

Mourning Dove Works by the Author Works about the Author Works by the Author Mourning Dove. Cogewea, the Half-Blood: A Depiction of the Great Montana Cattle Range, edited by Dexter Fisher. Lincoln, NE and London: University of Nebraska Press, 1981. Cogewea mixes elements of traditional Native American storytelling with dime-store novel melodrama and details from Mourning Dove's own life. Describing the struggles of a Native American woman in a non-Native culture, it explores the themes of conflicted identity that Mourning Dove herself faced. Cogewea is controversial because of the possible influence of her editor, L.V. McWhorter, whom some believe rewrote sections of the novel to add anthropologic, ethnographic, and dramatic elements. ----. Coyote Stories, edited by Jay Miller. Lincoln, NE and London: University of Nebraska Press, 1990. This is a collection of legends and traditional Salish stories told by the elders on the Colville Reservation. Mourning Dove transcribed these tales, which focus on the Coyote trickster figure. ----. Mourning Dove: A Salishan Autobiography, edited by Jay Miller. Lincoln, NE and London: University of Nebraska Press, 1990. Mourning Dove left the manuscript of her autobiography in the attic of her friend and collaborator Heister Dean Guie, a newspaper editor and illustrator, who died before having read it. Guie's wife eventually discovered it and worked to have it published. Editor Jay Miller profoundly shaped this autobiography and published it 54 years after Mourning Dove's death. In it, she vividly evokes tribal life, rites, ceremonies, and traditions, and illuminates her own family history.
