In the Shadow of Los Alamos
To read this book is to hear her own quiet voice, describing pueblo ceremonials, detailing the difficulties of life during the war years, and above all recording her own spiritual relationship with the New Mexico landscape.
The House at Otowi Bridge
This is the story of Edith Warner, who lived for more than twenty years as a neighbor to the Indians of San Ildefonso Pueblo, near Los Alamos, New Mexico. She was a remarkable woman, a friend to everyone who knew her, from her Indian companion Tilano, who was an elder of San Ildefonso, to Niels Bohr, Robert Oppenheimer, and the other atomic scientists who worked at Los Alamos during World War II. "A finely told tale of a strange land and of a rare character who united with it and, without seeming to do anything to that end, exerted an unusual influence upon all other lovers of that soil with whom she came in contact. The quality of the country, of the many kinds of people, and of the central character come through excellently." --Oliver La Farge
The House at Otowi Bridge
A tribute to Edith Warner who befriended both the Indians of San Ildefonso and the atomic scientists at Los Alamos.

Women and Western American Literature
This collection of essays about women and the West is organized under the following themes: "Shaping the Western Frontier: Women in History," "From Fact to Fiction: Myth as Filter," "Images in Transition and Conflict," and "Shaping Imaginative Frontiers." The themes are connected by the reappraisal of the impact of Western experience on American thought, and attitudes toward family, community, and the land. In exploring the roles and images of women in Western American tradition, the authors find that women's perceptions of values counter male myths of the West. ISBN 0-87875-229-3.
