{"product_id":"the-interpreter-denise-grote-9798196663611","title":"The Interpreter: Being a Faithful Narrative of the Life, Negotiations, and Secret Labors of Conrad Weiser.","description":"The Interpreter is a work of historical fiction that follows the life of Conrad Weiser (1696-1760), a real-life cultural broker in colonial America. The narrative begins with Weiser's formative months living among the Mohawk, where he learns the \"Great Law,\" the nuances of the Mohawk tongue, and the spiritual weight of wampum. This experience transforms him into a \"vessel\" capable of translating not just words, but vastly different moral universes. As an adult, Weiser is summoned by figures like James Logan and Shikellamy to serve as the \"Tongue\" of the Covenant Chain, a diplomatic alliance between the British and the Iroquois. The story details his harrowing 1737 winter journey to Onondaga, his role in the controversial Walking Purchase, and his interactions with a young George Washington on the eve of war. Ultimately, the book explores the \"Duality of Spirit\" as Weiser struggles to balance his life as a Lutheran farmer with his duty as a forest diplomat in a world that is rapidly descending into ruin. con\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Denise Grote,Kevin Grote\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798196663611\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/12\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.41d","brand":"Denise Grote","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48801507836159,"sku":"9798196663611","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-interpreter-denise-grote-9798196663611","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
