Book Overview

""Fairy Tale Of The White Man: Told From The Gates Of Sunset"" is a book written by Ella Sterling Mighels in 1915. The book tells the story of a young girl named White Otter, who is part of a Native American tribe living in the American West. The story is told from the perspective of White Otter, and it describes her encounters with a group of white settlers who come to the area. The settlers are portrayed as magical beings who possess technology and knowledge that the Native Americans do not have. White Otter is fascinated by these white people and their ways, and she begins to learn from them. However, as time goes on, she realizes that the white people are not as benevolent as she first thought. They are taking over the land and resources of the Native Americans, and they are not treating them fairly. The book is a commentary on the relationship between Native Americans and white settlers in the American West during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is a poignant and thought-provoking tale that explores themes of cultural clash, identity, and power.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
