'A breathtaking tale of risk, vision, and wisdom, Sharleen Daugherty’s Double Doll leads us from the pressure cooker of Wall Street to the big skies of the Navajo Nation. Like the Navajo weavings the book celebrates, Daugherty intertwines issues of race, class, and gender against a backdrop of heartbreaking beauty.' -Robert Wilder, author of Daddy Needs a Drink 'My relationship with Ms. Daugherty has gone on for over one hundred years. From writer’s coach to deep friend, we have traveled together ... Her cross-culture journey, and her insistence on finding the core of that adventure, are recorded in this trilogy. Hers is the Beauty Way of a strong woman willing to dare.' -Michael Thunder, writer’s coach 'Writing a memoir requires the ability to face the truth and to share it with a strong voice that tells the story with heart and dignity. Sharleen Daugherty has done this and more in the first book of her memoir trilogy, Double Doll. Her story brings both the beauty of the Southwest and the complexity of its people to life. Wonderfully written, this book should not be missed!' -Marcia Rosen, author of My Memoir Workbook
