Description: A rare, first-person narrative by the last-known speaker of the Tualatin Northern Kalapuya, discussing life on an Oregon reservation in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Review Quotes: "My Life, by Louis Kenoyer is a rare and beautifully contextualized told-to narrative that presents the life and times of Louis Kenoyer and, in doing so, provides invaluable insight into Native-newcomer relations in nineteenth century Oregon...Of great value is the structural analysis of Kenoyer's narrative as a work of oral literature and the historical context provided by the authors."
