Produktbeschreibung
Against the violent backdrop of the French and Indian (Seven Years) War, two German siblings come to learn about and understand the Mi'kmaq. Christian, now named Bear Cub, lives with the ancient People and develops a deep bond with his chosen brother, Eagle Feather, while his new family's way of life is increasingly threatened. On the outskirts of Lunenburg, Hanna, his younger sister, befriends a Mi'kmaw Elder and questions her papa's ownership of the land they are settling. Christian immerses himself in the Mi'kmaw language and the ways of the land, prepared to defend the People alongside Eagle Feather. Christian's father and older sister, Elisabeth, refuse to accept his new way of life; nor will they recognize the humanity of their perceived enemy. Christian is caught between two diverse families and cultures- the one to which he was born and to whom he feels obligated, and the one he has grown to love and respect. Settlers and Mi'kmaq alike struggle on land that is the ancestral home to one and promised to the other, a struggle that resonates to this day.

Soon after, shebegan a comprehensive journey that led her to write Tethered Spirits.Corinne loves the mysterious, mystical, and diverse world we live in and believes thatjust because we cannot see it does not mean it does not exist-it simply has not been discoveredyet. She is an anomaly who does not own a microwave, dishwasher, or cellphone. Her lifeencompasses lively games with her bridge friends; her love of gardening where things grow,buzz, and crawl, with a visit most mornings from her helper, the neighbour cat; practising TaiChi; and hiking with her husband through hemlock forests and unspoiled nature trails in out-of-the-way places.A member of the Writers' Federation of Nova Scotia, Corinne lives in the AnnapolisValley with her Dutch husband and a British Blue cat named Toby who is happiest when he isfed, loved, and has a clean litter box and a warm lap.
