No Dudes, Few Women: Life With A Navaho Range Rider is a memoir written by Elizabeth Lester Ward about her experiences living and working on a Navajo reservation in the 1970s. The book details Ward's move from the East Coast to the Southwest, where she takes a job as a teacher on a Navajo reservation. She soon meets a Navajo range rider named Ben, and the two begin a romantic relationship. Ward's memoir provides a unique perspective on Navajo culture and daily life on the reservation. She describes the challenges she faced as a white woman living in a predominantly Navajo community, including learning the Navajo language and adapting to the local customs. Ward also discusses the gender roles and expectations within Navajo society, as well as the impact of the government's forced relocation of Navajo families in the 1960s. Throughout the book, Ward reflects on her personal growth and the lessons she learned during her time on the reservation. She also provides insight into the Navajo people's connection to their land and the importance of preserving their culture. No Dudes, Few Women is a captivating and thought-provoking memoir that offers a unique perspective on Navajo life and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
