To Walk in Beauty takes readers on the journey of the Begay family of Jeddito Wash, Arizona, on the Navajo Reservation. This is an intimate portrait of a family's decision to return to the Navajo reservation to reclaim its cultural identity. The book highlights in intensely personal terms the sense of cultural dissolution long associated with the tragedy of Navajo history, providing a window on a culture not often seen by outsiders. Uplifting and moving, it examines the spiritual healing that can take place when cultural identity is reclaimed.
