The Indian and the Immigrant (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798886545104)

This book takes place in the 1800s when the Native Americans were fighting for their way of life. During this time, many immigrants were arriving in America. This immigrant's name is Sheffy. He, too, had a dream of coming to America and saved all his money to start a new life in the free world. He would soon realize it would not be as easy as he hoped it would. From the day he left his loving parents with emotional hugs to travel a long distance in order to get on a cargo ship that he heard was destined for America. Things began going wrong as soon as he tried to board the ship. After many hurdles and setbacks, he finally arrived. He was told that new towns out west were forming because the railroad was building stations out west in small towns, and this might be a good place to start a saloon with gaming. This was his dream! He soon found out that small towns did not accept strangers well. He got set up by bad locals, and before he knew it, he was running for his life! Not knowing anything about the region, he ran smack into Indian country! While trying to gather himself in a makeshift camp, a very wise brave named Good Crow happened upon him and was carefully watching his every move. He planned on killing him if he showed any threat. After carefully watching him for a few days, Good Crow realized this man is not acting the way the outlaws acted and could not figure out why he was alone. He soon realized why when outlaws catch up to him. This was where two of the most unlikely people become friends by accident.
