Description:
To his people, Calling Crow is a chief and leader, but to the Spaniards who invaded his land he is a slave. In 1535, the Spanish conquistadors arrived with their armies, and claimed the land that would later become know as Georgia and South Carolina. The peaceful native Muskogee tribe were conquered, bound into slavery and forced off the fertile coastal lands that had been their home for generations. But Chief Calling Crow refuses to have his spirit broken by the humiliations of enslavement. His oath to his people cannot be forgotten in this time of tragedy, and guided by his dreams he vows to restore his people to their former dignity. But to return his people to their lives of peace and plenty, Calling Crow must first fight for their freedom.
