Read a while ago....

This is my favorite book of all time... I suggest reading it right away...it really pulls you in.

Great Educational Fiction

For whatever reason I really enjoy reading Gary Cowart's story. This book should have been far more successful. I felt the main charecter's (Chad) pain, frustration, hope, fear, his resignation of his situation. This book is a great entertaining way to learn the ways of the Haida peoples. There is no reason for me to ramble on about how great this book was for me. Just read it yourself. If you are interested in Washington State, British Columbia history you must read this story. Thank you Mr Cowart.
