Riveting novella that tells the background of Henri Geroux and his trip by canoe from Fort Detroit through two of the Great Lakes, past Mackinac Island and on to Green Bay in 1761 after the French and Indian War.
It chronicled the hardships of Henri and his Ottawa friend Dances Away and their encounter, capture and escape from the Lakota while trapping beaver. They are welcomed into a friendly Potawatomi camp and discover a foe in their midst. The author spins an informative story about early settlers that included triumphs and tragedy and searching for faith.
Very good historical information.
