A chronicle of betrayal and abandonment, ostracism and exile, racism and humiliation, this title examines the story of the Harkis, the quarter of a million Algerian auxiliary troops who fought for the French in Algeria's war of independence.

It is told that the ancestors of the Navajos journeyed through four worlds to reach the fifth, or present, one. This work offers an ethnographic account of the complexities and underlying wonder of their fifth world of modern reservation life.
