The Schoolmaster of Abbach: And Other Stories (1870)

W O Von Horn,Wilhelm Oertel

Full Moon and Snowflower are NimA-ipuu (Nez Perce) teens in White Bird’s band, swept up in the turmoil of war and the desperate flight from Idaho to Canada in 1877. Orphaned as young children, the two siblings are forced to mature early as they live with their uncle Sits By the Fire, who enjoys gambling and alcohol a little too much. They face the clash of cultures head on when they are captured by white settlers and placed in a boarding school. A fast-paced tale of courage, love, and terror unfolds as the two teens struggle toward adulthood. Full Moon gains respect among the warriors and romance with beautiful Morning Song. Snowflower unfolds with wisdom and strength as her uncle rouses himself to value and defend his family. Amidst this conflict, like a bright ray of hope, gleams a spunky little golden palomino mare, Horse of the Dawn.
