Having been born and raised on the Navajo Reservation, Abeita was exposed all his young life to the ways of Navajo families living and raising sheep in Canyon de Chelly, that marvelous beautiful canyon, sometimes called the Little Grand Canyon.  His treatments of the landscape and the people of the canyon are unmistakably accurate.
