Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Fifteen-year-old Madolen leaves her drunken, gold-panning father to live with a kind Mormon familyat their ranch, far from her canyon. She is taught to read and write, but an accident forces her to leave the ranch and make her own way as a canyon guide. Her first job is guiding a rich young Easterner who is surveying the efforts of a mining operation in the canyons, and Madolen falls in love with the young man. But as a half-Navajo, will she be able to leave her beloved canyon and the ancient call of her mother's people?
Synopsis:
Set in the old west of the 1890's, half-Navajo Madolen Demming leaves her beautiful canyon at 15, craving freedom and a life beyond the canyon--that looms just out of her reach. But in the world outside, and after a doomed love affair, Madolen discovers that what she needs most of all is the love and the life style she once disdained, a way of life that may be lost forever to the modern world. A moving, triumphant story of a girl torn between desires. Young adult/adult 14 up
