Opis

This story is about one of the Wisnook Tribal legends, albeit a lesser legend, but nonetheless, one of great significance. We know the greatest legend among the Wisnook is the White Panther or the spirit leader of the tribe. At the time of this story the steamboat had recently been invented. These powerful machines were beginning to travel the larger waterways. A young man without prior knowledge of such a contraption became familiar with a few of the men who were searching for new ways of travel to improve commerce and human transportation. This story involves the uncanny innocence of a young Indian lad who with good luck and the right companions would be able to do more for the world than he would have otherwise had he not been summoned away from the comfort and friendly life among his family and peers. Did I say peers, he had no peers. He was that much different. His situation was much different than any normal boy born into the Wisnook Tribe, he had a distinct birth characteristic that made him one of the most reserved and most challenged lads of his time. He found it very difficult to be normal even though he didn't mind his difference.
