Sunday Eiselt has provided the definitive reference on the history and archaeology of the Jicarilla Apache…. [The book’s] value as a resource for researchers cannot be overstated. Although I might not take this book to read on the beach, it is on my bookshelf next to my keyboard, and I know I will be citing it for decades to come.
Kiva Journal of Southwestern Anthropology and History
"Eiselt’s ethnocontextual and archaeomaterial examinations of resistance and resilience through actively managed change have relevance beyond the specifics of Jicarilla culture history."
Historical Archaeology
"Becoming White Clayis a masterful synthesis of years of Eiselt’s research on the Jicarilla Apache. The anthropological and historical methods, and the theory she brings to her analysis make this work a resource valuable beyond the explication of the particular case study described at the end of the book."
Journal of Anthropological Research
The author’s integrative use of historical, ethnographic and archaeological data to develop a cultural history for the Jicarilla is of benefit to not only scholars of the Jicarilla Apache but the historical period in the Southwest U.S. as well.
Ethnohistory
Becoming White Clay is a potentially powerful argument that ‘enclavement is a major factor in the persistence of nomadic and immigrant communities and should be considered alongside ethnogenesis, hybridity and creolization in archaeological and historical narratives of American Indian survival.' I venture that it has a broader application than this.
Bulletin of the History of Archaeology
This book contributes immensely to our understanding of Jicarilla Apache history, but it also provides a broader perspective on the complexities of Apachean history more generally.
Journal of California and Great Basin Anthropology
This volume transcends the limitations of the [festschrift] form and stands on its own merits as a collection of chapters on public anthropology from a North American perspective. . . . The chapters . . . are diverse enough to attract readers from many specialties . . . and the range of interests and topics exhibited by the authors accurately mirror the diversity of Ford’s contribution to North American anthropology.
