Description: Daniel Allouez, whose father is French and mother is Ojibwe Indian, enters into the French and Indian War not only to fight the enemy, but to discover who he is at the crossroads of race, religion, and sexual orientation. The spiritual nature of Daniel's search draws beautifully upon his Ojibwe tradition, with its emphasis on experiencing the Divine in nature. Daniel's discovery of love in a same-sex relationship presents difficulties as well as transformation in this resounding story of triumph and emotional healing.
