Historical fiction readers and book discussion groups will find much to ponder here. -- Library Journal Sweeping, epic, heart-wrenching, and powerful...A well-written, carefully researched, compelling novel. -- RT Book Reviews (4 stars) Skenandore's deeply introspective and moving novel will appeal to readers of American history, particularly those interested in the dynamics behind the misguided efforts of white people to better the lives of Native Americans by forcing them to adopt white cultural mores. -- Publishers Weekly
