In this novel, first published in 1891, young, idealistic Genevieve Weir arrives in Indian Territory on a mission to bring "civilization" to the Muscogee people. There she meets Wynema, a young Muscogee girl who shares the traditions and beliefs of her tribe. Together, these young women come of age during a time in American history marred by racism, sexism, and brutality toward Native Americans.
