My Place Among Them by J. Stanion Reaches Bestselling Status
The author’s debut novel has gained recognition for its exploration of Indigenous history, earning multiple awards and praise for its research and storytelling.
United States, 13th Sep 2024, – My Place Among Them by J. Stanion has recently reached the top of overseas bestselling lists. The historical fiction novel tells the story of John Iron Horse, a 12-year-old Lakota boy who survived the Wounded Knee Massacre. It focuses on the U.S. government’s Indian Education program and the efforts to assimilate Indigenous children into white society.
The book has earned numerous awards including the following: 2024 BREW Seal of Excellence, 2024 Silver Medal Global Book Award for Cultural Heritage Fiction, 2024 Pencraft Award for Best Book for Fiction – Cultural, 2023 BREW Fiction Book Excellence Award for Political Fiction of the Year, 2023 NYC Big Book Award for Cultural Heritage, Finalist in the 2023 Laramie Book Awards for Americana Fiction, Finalist in the 2023 Goethe Book Awards for Post-1750s Historical Fiction, Second Place in the 2023 Incipere Book Award for Historical Clean Fiction, 2023 Outstanding Creator Awards Top 25 Ranked Non-Fiction Books, and 2023 HFC “Highly Recommended” 5-Star Award.
The novel has been praised for its historical detail and treatment of complex themes. The Chrysalis BREW Project called the book “engaging and well-researched” and highlighted its ability to give readers “a closer look into a period that is often romanticized yet seldom understood in its full complexity.”
The Historical Fiction Company gave it a 5-star rating, noting that Stanion “has created a touching novel that does Indigenous history justice.”
Madelyn Rohrer, author of Children of the Edict, described the book as “a riveting read of conflict and resistance, hardships and perseverance,” while Bud Shapard, retired from the Bureau of Indian Affairs, called it “a well-written, most enjoyable read” for those interested in Old West narratives.
Stanion’s dedication to accuracy and storytelling is evident in her process. She consulted with tribal elders and other experts to ensure cultural details were correct. Speaking about this effort, she stated, “I reached out to tribal elders and other Lakota references for confirmation that my great-grandfather’s details were accurate.”
In My Place Among Them, J. Stanion presents a narrative steeped in Indigenous history and culture. As she shared in an exclusive interview with FOX 40, “To be honest, it was only the commitment to my father that inspired me to become a published author.” She further noted, “My promise to my father was the single driving force behind the hours it took to complete my first novel.” J. Stanion transitioned to writing after a 31-year teaching career. She completed the novel based on a manuscript left by her great-grandfather, fulfilling a promise made to her late father. Reflecting on her journey, she said, “Before he died of cancer, I promised my dad I would get it done.”
J. Stanion’s deep connection to Indigenous art forms, particularly Lakota Ledger art and Pine Ridge Pottery, plays a vital role in her storytelling. In a recent interview with Vents Magazine, Stanion shared how these art forms ground her creative process: “To touch a piece of art, such as pottery, is to know that another human also touched that piece, creating it somewhere in a world where I didn’t exist. I feel a connection to that person when I see or touch their work.” This connection is evident throughout My Place Among Them, where Stanion’s characters reflect the rich cultural heritage of Indigenous peoples.
Stanion also emphasized that her book reflects a “deep respect for the people who lived on this continent prior to the white man’s arrival,” exploring themes of resilience and courage. My Place Among Them has gained attention for its exploration of Indigenous history and government policies. As Stanion works on her second novel, readers continue to engage with the powerful themes presented in her first work. In her The World’s Best Magazine interview, she said “It is very important for me to preserve and highlight cultural histories because I believe that cultural identity has intrinsic value, that cultural differences have helped individual societies survive and succeed in their own place over time, and that in those differences we may find the keys to help all people survive as the world changes around us.”
The book is available in digital, paperback, and hardbound editions through major retailer sites such as Amazon. Visit J. Stanion’s website for more details via www.jstanion.com.

China-Europe Industrial Innovation Zone: Creating a model zone for China-EU cooperation
2024 marks the 21st anniversary of establishing a comprehensive strategic partnership between China and Europe, China-EU relations are showing good momentum of consolidation and development. China looks forward to the EU becoming a key partner in pursuing Chinese modernization, sharing opportunities in its vast market, institutional opening-up, and deepening international collaboration.
Wuxi, a core city in the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration, has attracted investments from European companies such as AstraZeneca, Bosch, and Siemens since China’s coastal opening up. The city has opened up China-Europe freight train services and direct cargo routes to Europe, fostering deepening economic and trade cooperation—Wuxi High-tech Zone, located in the hinterland of the Yangtze River Delta with convenient transportation links. Since becoming a national high-tech zone in 1992, it has incubated a robust ecosystem of technological innovation, housing numerous postdoctoral workstations, listed companies, and high-tech enterprises. Ranked 4th among China’s top 100 districts for high-quality development and 18th among 177 national high-tech zones, Wuxi High-tech Zone stands out as a beacon of growth.
In November 2023, the Wuxi China-Europe Industrial Innovation Zone was officially launched.
As an open window for China-Europe cooperation, the China-Europe Industrial Innovation Zone aims to promote high-level openness, serving as a platform for sharing opportunities globally, a bridge for deepening EU collaboration, and a forefront for innovation in China-Eu partnerships. By the end of 2023, EU countries states had invested in 166 projects in the Wuxi High-tech Zone, with a total investment of €15 billion. In 2023 alone, these projects generated sales revenue of RMB 118.23 billion and contributed RMB 8.18 billion in taxes.
Spanning a total planned area of 24.5 square kilometers, the China-Europe Industrial Innovation Zone is situated in the Meicun area of the Wuxi High-tech Zone. The core area covers 7.7 square kilometers, with the initial development area along both sides of Xinhua Road spanning 1.15 square kilometers. Anchored in Meicun Street, the zone aims to become a model for China-Europe cooperation, providing a premium platform for the Wuxi High-tech Zone and the city of Wuxi to strengthen international collaboration. The first phase of construction has already reached the structural topping-off stage and is expected to be completed by March 2025.
Building on Wuxi High-tech Zone’s solid foundation of international industrial cooperation, the China-Europe Industrial Innovation Zone adheres to a philosophy of integrated development of science, industry, and urbanization. It is actively developing four international cooperation sub-parks: the China-Germany International Cooperation Industrial Park, the China-France International Cooperation Industrial Park, the China-Switzerland International Cooperation Industrial Park, and the China-Israel International Cooperation Industrial Park.
The China-Europe Industrial Innovation Zone targets an annual output value of RMB 160 billion and tax revenue exceeding RMB 8 billion. It aims to attract at least 30 European “hidden champion” enterprises, including over 10 multinational company headquarters. The zone will construct more than 500,000 square meters of innovation facilities and jointly establish at least three European industrial technology transfer centers. Efforts to attract major China-Europe cooperative projects are being intensified, with key EU-related projects such as Legrand, AML Systems, Schneider Electric, Faurecia, and Siemens accelerating their presence in the zone. The future focus will be on cutting-edge EU technologies and innovations, optimizing industrial structure and layout to position the zone as a leading provincial-level economic development zone, Wuxi High-tech Zone’s preferred industrial destination, and a top-tier international industrial cooperation zone renowned across China and the Yangtze River Delta.
