Montana 1948 by Larry Watson
3.0
3.5/5
10th grade English class. I love the moral dilemma presented in this book, one without a good solution. However, my biggest qualm was how little "Montana 1948" spent its time on the actual victims: the Native Americans who were molested by a white man in a position of power. I guess t makes sense since we're told the story from David's point of view, but was a little boy, privileged in his race, economic status and heritage, the best narrator to tell this story?
