Title: Ride the Wind
Product review: A fascinating portrait of the Comanche nation on the cusp of their appalling treatment by the whites when they were virtually starved into submission and herdednon to the reservations. Although the writer does not spare the reader from the atrocities perpetrated by both sides of the conflict, she gives us a wonderful insight into the ways of the Comanches from the point of view of the captured girl Cynthia Ann Parker, and her transformation into a Comanche woman. One whose life was ruined by her recapture by the whites later in life after her marriage to a member of the tribe and the birth of her children. Very sad portrait of her demise as she longs for her Indian husband. There is a moving portrait of their courtship and marriage, a marriage which survived much bloodshed and difficulties and were the protagonists were portrayed as being deeply committed to each other. All iN all a great read.
