Event Details

Join the Billings Public Library, the Northern Plains Resource Council, and This House of Books as they host award-winning Montana author Chris La Tray presenting his much-anticipated memoir Becoming Little Shell: A Landless Indian's Journey Home. The book combines Indigenous history and personal stories as the author explores the complexity of his own identity and the broader effects of colonialism in a title that, in David Treuer's words, "will, without a doubt, become a classic in Native American literature."
