Book Overview

""The Son of the Wilderness"" is a dramatic poem written by Friedrich Halm and first published in 1848. The story takes place in the wilderness of North America during the 18th century and follows the life of a young man named Osceola, who is the son of a Native American woman and a white man. Osceola struggles to find his place in the world as he faces discrimination and prejudice from both the Native American and white communities.
