A first-person travel narrative by the illustrator N. C. Wyeth, published in Scribner's Monthly in 1909. Wyeth stays at the Two Gray Hills trading post in New Mexico, meets a young Navajo herder named Begay, and accompanies him on a two-day drive of a thousand sheep across the desert to a sheep buyer. The text covers herding methods, the landscape, hogans and trading posts, and only briefly mentions Navajo blanket weavers at their looms. A full-page painting of a Navajo herder with his flock is included.
