Author: Joseph Bruchac Publisher: Milkweed Editions (2005) At the End of Ridge Road, a philosophical memoir, brings together the threads of Bruchac's life and reveals the linkage b etween his interest in native cultures—he is Abenaki—and his views about human dignity and social justice. He begins by asking readers to "take off your watch" and "live time" rather than being ruled by it. He then tells about his childhood in the Adirondacks, the Abenaki heritage of the region, his path from "nature nut" to jock to writer, and his house on Ridge Road. Show more
