Produktbeschreibung
Dominated by a powerful founding family, a safe small-town cocoon resting on the fringe of Seneca/Iroquois sacred homelands conceals the secrets of the human heart, the wayward soul perpetuated through the years of habitation. In the Lands of the Twin Springs, native Seneca/Iroquois peoples maintained Sacred Home lands for many generations. When White settlers arrive in 1820 attempting to make a new life, a chain of events is set in motion involving cooperation and conflict that lasts for more than a century. Native or Quaker, shopkeeper or oil baron, the residents of the area will face decades of socioeconomic upheaval followed by cultural accommodation forced upon farm-to-market towns and expanding cities throughout an often-fractious United States. Based on historical events this novel, the first of a series, depicts a family saga originating in the Allegheny River Valley and spanning cultures and transplanted generations from the early eighteen hundreds into 1960.
Autorenporträt
Ellyn Weaver, of mixed Anglo and Native American ancestry, was born and raised in upstate New York, near the Seneca/Iroquois reservation. While raising a family in varied urban regions, she earned a degree in Human Services with a major in anthropological studies. Research into her own mixed racial roots brought to life characters telling stories unique to their time and geological settings in BOOK ONE of the series We WALK in FOOTPRINTS. BOOK TWO unites the Welborne/Burdette, Hamlin/Cary families into the next generation with the union of Austin and Jenny in the early 1960s. A thread running through more than a century of bitter conflict is the apparition of an early settler whose journal holds keys to the resolution of disputed land claims. Ellyn now makes her home in the state of Colorado. For more information on Ellyn Weaver's three-book series, please see: www.wewalkinfootprints.com.
