Author: Robert J. Conley
A story told from the view point of War Woman, a name
Whirlwind achieves through her extraordinary skills and abilities during
each of the various events. This history parallels Whirlwind/War Woman's
development from girlhood to maturity and eventually death. Cherokee
beliefs, traditions, and way of life are interwoven throughout the story as
the Real People come face to face with the beliefs, traditions, and customs
of the invading peoples. This is an excellent novel that features strong
female protagonists; there are also love interests and fierce battle scenes.
It presents a Native American viewpoint of early American history and offers
alternative explanations for some of the archaeological discoveries still
not explained completely. |
