An installment in the saga of Alvin Maker, 'Prentice Alvin.
In this book, we learn more about those wild talents, both the minor gifts of the white people--starting fires, finding water, sensing life---and the much grander gifts of the Indians, whose lives are filled with a beautiful green music. With this green music an Indian can run all day and all night without catching his breath, can coax a rabbit out of its hole and ask its permission to be his food, can live in harmony with the earth and all its beings.
Alvin,Lolla-Wossiky, an Indian prophet; and Ta-Kumsaw, a chief, all work together to minimize the evils loosed on the world by White Murderer Harrison, powerful governor of the frontier town of Carthage City.
