Book Description
Colored leaves, red, yellow, and brown, fluttered past George as he rode behind Woonsak in the long string of Indians and ponies. They were riding north and moving quickly. So many Indians moved along the path that George, who rode near the front of the line, could not see the end when he turned around to look. The farther they went, the more unhappy George became. For with every step, Neko (his faithful pony) took him farther and farther from his home and from Ma and Pa. Even the fluttering leaves seemed like little hands waving good-bye all the day long. So begins chapter seven of this beloved classic by Josephine Cunnington Edwards. George, a young pioneer boy is captured by Indians and raised as the son of a mighty chief. He spends his time learning the ways of these native Americans, and yearning for the day that he might find a way to return to his loving family.

The Cousins and the Cave of Fire is about a group of cousins who discover a cave which quickly becomes their "special place." They become embroiled in efforts to keep this a secret, going so far as to lie by omission to their parents. When the time warp inside the cave reveals itself to them, they double their efforts to safeguard its knowledge. For even though they have some moments of guilt, they can't resist being able to watch the comings and goings of a young Indian and his family that they see through the time warp. The cousins enjoy watching this clan of Indians living in what they soon decide is this very same cave, only as it might have looked in a much earlier time frame. Eventually there is a confrontation between the elements of these two sets of different people, just as in time the cousins inevitable become found out by their parents. There is a lot of history in The Cousins and the Cave of Fire, and wherever possible to the plot of the story, a great deal of Christian Faith.

Book Description
The second book in Rosanne Bittner’s bold Savage Destiny series continues the love story of Zeke and Abbie Monroe. For the first five years of her marriage Abbie lives among the Cheyenne, learning their customs and beliefs and giving birth to a son who is as wild and free as his Native American family, and a daughter who will one day be forced to choose between her Indian and white blood. Through real historical events involving the government and Native Americans, Zeke and Abbie cling to one another through danger and torn loyalties. This story vividly depicts the “right” and “wrong” of both sides in the bloody conflicts that arose as the West was settled. Through it all Zeke strives to reach the point where he can provide his Abbie with a real “white woman’s “ home, where she can set a prized family heirloom, a mantle clock, over a fireplace in a house with real wood floors and a cooking hearth. Though his heart is as wild as his Cheyenne blood, Zeke will give up that life for his beloved Abbie. PRAISE: “Power, passion, tragedy, and triumph are Rosanne Bittner’s hallmarks. Again and again, she brings readers to tears.” —Romantic Times “Extraordinary…Bittner’s characters spring to life.” —Publishers Weekly
