BEGINNING novelists take notice that this is a first novel and an exceptionally good one. It is the vigorous and rather pensive story of the Indian tribes who gathered in the lee of Mackinac in the early 1800’s before being dispersed and driven westward by the white man. Skillful in characterization, clear-cut and memorable in its description, the book brings us closer to a people and a problem alien to our thoughts. A performance which does credit to a creative writing fostered by the University of Michigan.
