One early morning in 1754 an Indian raid on a small New Hampshire negotiation shatters all young Miriam Willard's desires and dreams. Suddenly she and her family are victims of the French and Indian Warfare. Required to march north to Canada, they will either be performed captive by the Indians or sold to the French as slaves. Following the nerve-wracking connection with working an Indian gauntlet, Miriam is sold to a wealthy French family in Montreal. Held captive for a ransom that could never arrive, she dreams about the attractive young soldier she left behind. When her boldness and independence get her thrown out on to the hostile pavements, she must use her wits to make it through until she can find a means home. This Newbery Award-winning author of The Bronze Bow used the lives of real visitors to inspire her radiant recreations of record. Narrator Barbara Caruso catches the novel's powerful individuals and strong sense of destination to present an beneficial and insightful record lesson.
