This was the only book that I read for English 11 Honors summer reading that I actually enjoyed, and I've talked to a few others in my class, and they have all said that it's also their favorite out of all of the books. I love learning about history, and one of my favorite time periods is the 1600's through 1800's. I also really love learning about Native American cultures. I thought this book did a wonderful job showing both the Native American's and the white's perspectives and reasoning behind things. I definitely recommend that everyone who enjoys history reads this book.
