Wine country mogul writes Native history novel

Greg Sarris, chairman of the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria, has authored a novel titled "The Last Human Bear," which explores California Native history and indigenous experiences through the story of a Pomo shape-shifter passing as Mexican. The novel is inspired by the spiritual leader Mabel McKay and aims to shed light on Sonoma County's hidden Native past, including themes of violence, identity, and revenge. Sarris, also a prominent figure in the tribe's multimillion-dollar casino enterprise, uses proceeds from the casino to support tribal initiatives, despite ongoing tensions surrounding the project.
