They are true tales of New Mexico, but told only as Tony, one of America's greatest yarn spinners can. Most, in particular the "unfeloneous unbankrobbery" in the title essay will have you holding your sides, while at the same time learning something about the unique culture of the Land of Enchantment. Highly recommended

Tony Hillerman is a Navajo Indian, who writes about the southwest. Hillerman fans will delight in in factual stories that appear in fictional stories in the Dance hall of the Dead. This book is a collection of true stories that the author has used for fiction in his novels.This is a great book for those seeking to understand the Navajo culture.
