| Historical fiction at its best by an author who has thoroughly researched a subject she loves, and who can write. This fascinating saga of the Columbia River begins 9000 years ago and ends with a present-day archaeological dig. The saga of the family involved with the river starts in 1792 with Ilchee, a Chinook shaman who marries a white trader. Each succeeding generation plays a vital part in the progress of the Columbia country in the Pacific Northwest, as it produces its abundant riches of salmon, fur, lumber, and water. The characters are strong, vivid, passionate, and the writing is rich in local color and humor. Sister Avila, Acad. of the Holy Angels, Minneapolis |
