Summary |
The Loon Feather is the story of an Indian girl, Oneta, daughter of Tecumseh, destined to grow up with the incompatible traditions of her own people and of the white traders on Mackinac Island. She learns French from a "black coat" in a mission school, gradually becomes bound to the world of her French stepfather, Pierre Dubans, and is educated in a convent in Quebec. Only when Debans, unable to reconcile tribal ways with his European background nearly sparks an Indian uprising does Oneta make a choice between her two heritages. |
