Great story set in the time of Indian Removals in the Appalachians, full of interesting characters, dubious moralities, and actual bits of history. The only downside is that Will Cooper, the narrator and protagonist, is so into himself and his story that I ended up wishing for somebody else's point of view ... particularly that of his lost love Claire, but also that of his mentor Bear. A bit ironic, given the sad theme of a people not getting their due.
