This is one of the finest historical novels that I have read. I am a real fan of Pamela Jeckel. All of her novels are meticulously researched and historically accurate. Her use of both the human saga and the animal life of the area are interwoven and really two stories in one. I am a Northwest native and reading of the history of the mighty Columbia before man was in the area, to the building of the Gramd Coulee Dam was an eye opener. The lives of the characters are interwoven from the Portland Chinese immigrant woman, the Indian shaman, and the dam builder. A terrific book.
Great historical novel

I am from the Pacific Northwest and this is one super book! I enjoyed reading it and was facinated with the accuracy of this historical novel. I highly recommend it! It is a "hard to put down" book.
