"In this rollicking tale, Mohawk hero Tehawenniharhos, aka Squire
Davis, aka Sky Walker, rides through the turbulent and lawless days
of 1845 Upper Canada. As he longs for the love of the Scotchwoman
Jennet Ferguson, he finds himself at the heart of the divide
between Mohawk tradition and the new Presbyterian society putting
down roots in communities across Ontario. As Tehawenniharhos
contemplates marrying the white woman he adores, he faces prejudice
on both sides of the racial divide and realizes that neither the
Six Nations tribes nor the Presbyterian elite of Uxbridge and
Brantford will accept him and Jennet. Meanwhile, Tehawenniharhos
becomes involved in a manhunt for a Mohawk cousin and his violent
English accomplice, who are wanted for the assault on a woman who
runs a tavern on Vinegar Hill. The chase takes him and his
compatriots along the byways of Upper Canada as he clashes with
land jobbers, robber barons and disgruntled British regulars. En
route, we discover the wildness of the Canadian frontier through
social customs, politics, scandals, criminal activities and
economic tensions. Plots and subplots make for a riveting adventure
through the early days of our nation, bringing our history alive as
never before. "
