Editorial Reviews
Book Description
"No one weaves a tribal story quite like Robert Conley. Conley's books are entertaining, colorful, and chock-full of tribal history and culture."--Wilma P. Mankiller, former Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation
Few writers portray Native American life and history as richly, authentically, and insightfully as Robert J. Conley, an important voice of the Cherokee past. The novels in his Real People series combine powerful characters, gripping plots, and vivid descriptions of tradition and mythology to preserve Cherokee culture and history.
In this, the fourth novel of Robert J. Conley's saga of the Real People, Carrier, a young Cherokee trader, comes of age during his first solo trip to the Timucua. The Way South narrates Carrier's efforts to forge an alliance of southern tribes against an incursion of Spanish explorers.
