Ink Nash Wanikshaash( my name is) Say'yepum Ah-toot-wy Stacey Speedis. I am a 35 year- young Native woman here on the Yakama Indian Reservation who has fallen over, or stumbled many times on the rough trail of life. My book is an autiobiography that I have started down in Sante Fe, New Mexico while I was attending the Institute of American Indian Arts in 1996- 97. I am an artist of many talents who is very traditional to our way of life. I am a single mother of two wondreful children who I would do anything for. My children look up to me as the strongest person in the world who is passing on our culture which was passed down to me by my elders. My family here on the Yakama reservation of the lower Yakima valley of Washington, and our family on the Umatilla Reservation know that I love them all very much.....except... You'll have to read my book. Payu kw'axla(thank you), SASSpeedis '11

Riding 2,000 miles on horseback from Montana to New Mexico sounds like a crazy but thrilling dream or pure hardship and exhaustion. According to Bernice Ende, the trip was all that and more. Since swinging her leg over the saddle for that first long ride in 2005 (at the age of 50), Ende has logged more than 29,000 miles in the saddle, crisscrossing North America on horseback - alone. More than once she has traversed the Great Plains, the Southwest deserts, the Cascade Range, and the Rocky Mountains. Along the way, she discovered a sense of community and love of place that unites people wherever they live. From 2014-2016, she was the first person to ride coast to coast and back again in one trek, winning acclaim from the international Long Riders' Guild and awe from the people she met along the way. Bernice Ende's memoirs are illuminated by accompanying maps of her routes and photos from her journeys, capturing the instant friends she meets along the way, and her ongoing encounters with harsh weather, wildlife, hard work, mosquitoes, tricky route-finding, and the occasional worn out horseshoe. Ende reveals her inner struggles and triumphs - testing the limits of physical and mental stamina, coping with inescapable solitude, and the rewards of living life her own way, as she says, "in her own skin." Saddle up and come along for the journey of a lifetime.
