Cheyenne War Drums in Yellowstone

De: Philip Morehouse

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

This is a story about a young man, Ben, who is a tourist guide for Yellowstone National Park. While on vacation in the park, he wanders into a “restricted” area and is trapped under an avalanche. As the hours' pass, due to the extreme pain, he fades in and out of consciousness, and near death, he is rescued by an Indian Chief and his daughter, who, unknown to others, lives in the restricted area of the park. Because Ben had earlier befriended the Chief, he takes him to their village deep in the mountains, where he and his daughter nurse him back to health. Because of Ben's interest in the tribe and learning their ways, he is allowed to stay. Through his knowledge, he returns the Chief’s kindness by saving his daughter’s life, warding off a devastating forest fire, how to survive a killer tornado and an attack by another Indian Tribe. However, when the tribe is discovered living illegally in the park, can he save them from being evicted and sent to a reservation?

This story cleverly weaves in the First Nations people’s culture - how they live, create their equipment, hunt, and govern themselves.
