Sanctuary Meditations for Priests and Frequent Communicants (1876)

Dark Sighted is just one of the names used to define a Wampanoag youth who is an emerging shaman. It would seem that he can see better in the dark than most people can see in broad daylight. It is 1620; the English have come to North America to stay and his people are the first Native Americans to have sustained contact with the Puritan colonists. To his face, most people call him Mole. He, alone, seems to be the only one who really understands the threat posed by the English to his people and their entire way of life. Mole is the weaponless warrior who must not shed another person’s blood. He helps fend off traditional enemies such as the Narragansetts, the attack of a vengeful ghost, and the crippling influence of a manipulating Wampanoag sorcerer and traitor. Dark Sighted is a true Native American hero. Enjoy his story.
