The Courage of a Hopi boy who was sold to a mountain man

Loma and other Hopi children were stolen by the Spanish soldiers and taken far away from their pueblo. Loma was sold to a mountain man named Big Jim who made his living trapping beaver. Loma does not believe in killing animals for money. He and Big Jim do not get along. Later they become friends. It is an exciting story.
