As a way of giving back to the Eastern Band of Cherokees, Frazier is translating a portion of the novel and other books into the Cherokee language. They will be the first contemporary works translated into the tribal tongue in 175 years. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.indiancountry.com/content.cfm?id=1096414094 " target="blank">www.indiancountry.com/content.cfm?id=1096414094 </a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
