Born and raised in farmers\u2019 family, George Terrill IV is determined to pursue a career in journalism. A chance encounter with Rodney, a native American from the proud Hochunk nation, brings George face to face with the stark reality of what it means to be a native American in contemporary America. George\u2019s bond with Great Grandfather, the 94-year-old, blind, Hochunk Indian chief, makes him realize his true purpose in life. In a leisurely paced narrative heavy with intrigue and the Native American history, Linde skillfully handles a large cast of characters and several mini storylines. Linde\u2019s writing is assured and the prose breathtaking as he conveys how decisions of the past shape the present, resulting in a moving and gripping story. The scenes of everyday Indian life are sketched with conviction, and the whimsical world of Indian legends and beliefs adds to the intrigue. This poignant novel is not only an impassioned indictment of the white man\u2019s rule in old as well as new America, chronicling the harrowing journey of native Americans to reclaiming of their ancestral lands but also a poignant tale of love, acceptance, tolerance, and understanding. This fascinating blend of history, tension, and dramatic momentum makes for an enthralling literary tale. Lovers of literary fiction and historicals will be greatly rewarded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Note: This title is available on Kindle Unlimited.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Little Spirit (Waldwick)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">By Kenneth Linde<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Waldwick, Inc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Little-Spirit-This-land-Waldwick-ebook\/dp\/B07PLN585W\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Buy now<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pub date March 10, 2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ASIN B07PLN585W<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price $7. 35 (USD) Kindle edition<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An enthralling tale of love, acceptance, and understanding\u2026 Set in contemporary Madison, Wisconsin, Linde\u2019s second installment in the Waldwick series chronicles a young man\u2019s coming-of-age journey as he navigates life\u2019s ups and downs, learning about love, life, and liberty.
