In this sequel to The White Seneca, Henry Cochrane, now eighteen,
is entrusted with a message from the settlers of the Wyoming
Valley, Pennsylvania, to the Continental Army. They are suffering
under the constant Indian raids instigated by the British and plead
for protection. Because of Henry's knowledge of Indian ways,
General George Washington requests his services as a scout for
General Sullivan in the campaign to forever break the power of the
Iroquois Confederacy. In the fall of 1779, the combined armies of
Generals Sullivan and Clinton sweep across New York State,
destroying Indian villages and crops. Henry, alone and in constant
peril, travels ahead of the Army seeking to warn his Indian friends
of the coming destruction while also desperately searching for the
beautiful Constance Leonard whom he had been forced to leave in
captivity a year earlier.
In the year 1774, fifteen-year-old Henry Cochrane is captured by a
party of Seneca Indians near his home in central New York State.
Adopted by the young Seneca, Hiokoto the Hawk, Henry grows to love
the Indian ways and becomes Dundiswa - the White Seneca. When Henry
is captured by an enemy tribe, he must rely on all the skills he
has learned from the Indians, as well as his own courage and
determination, as he attempts to escape from them and rescue fellow
captive, Constance Leonard. Meanwhile, the Revolutionary War has
begun and conflict escalates between the Indians, who have sided
with the British, and the settlers. Eventually Henry must choose
between his love for the Senecas and his loyalty to his own people.
