Book Synopsis
Beginning with their battle against the forces of Ponce de Leon, the Calusa Indians of southwest Florida entered a dark period of European invasion and native resistance, which changed the nature and course of life on the North American continent. This work is set during Spanish entrada into southwest Florida and their encounters with the Calusa.

Trade Review
A very well-written, moving and captivating tale that is based substantially on the existing documentation about 16th-century Spanish contact with the Calusa Indians and incorporates a broad range of information from both ethnohistorical and archaeological sources to create a narrative that, although fictional, provides the reader with a substantially factual understanding of the Calusa and their world. I found myself drawn into the characters. - John E. Worth, author of Struggle for the Georgia Coast and The Timucua Chiefdoms of Spanish Florida
