One Knife: The Tale of a White Sioux

One Knife: The Tale of a White Sioux

A new Young Adult Western, by acclaimed Western author W.R. Benton.
Former mountain man turned homesteader John Anderson knew life on the western frontier would be hard for his lone farming family. He did his best to give them a clean start, making peace with the local Sioux tribe and paying the tribe for his land. John didn't count on the Crow suddenly claiming the same farm land belonged to them. While preparing to abandon his homestead to the Crow, his youngest son wanders off in the confusion.

At only six years old, little Samuel has no hope of surviving on his own. Spreading out to search the wilderness, John finally finds a cluster of small footprints in the dirt, only to have his hopes dashed as Samuel's trail is joined by moccasin tracks, and then... vanishes.

Searching on for another day proves fruitless. John is forced to accept his son is gone forever. The stricken father takes comfort in one fragile hope: he prays Sam's blue eyes and blonde hair will mark him as a novelty, a child worthy of protection among the dark brown eyes and black hair of the typical tribe members. John's prayers are answered; Sam is raised by his captors. He learns their language and ways, and in time becomes a strong and proud Sioux warrior.

Years later, a chance encounter reunites father and son and sets them on the same path. What Sam learns from John will shake up everything he thinks he knows about his real family and true parents. The reunion brings grave challenges and fresh heartaches as father and son struggle to replace the long years of separation and forge a new bond.
