On the Rez by Ian Frazier, i'd rate it a 5 or 6 but then again i'd probably like it better if it wasn't required reading (lol-i hate required reading teachers never pick what i would lol) but it in manmy ways a reformed history book. It tells a lot about Native American culture and the (for lack of a better word) plight of Native American people in the past as well as present while also introducing you to a fascinating character base that very much serves to illustrate many of the points the author is trying to make. Definately a book the teaches you without your knowing it I don't know about life changing but definately a view point changing book for myself, it has definately helped irradicate and redifine many stereotypical ideas i had had about the native american people who live on reservations today.
