Description
Pelham Bay Park, the Bronx - under these streets the villages of the Algonquin people lie buried. Here, as recently as 1924, a lone Algonquin still lived in a wild, isolated corner of New York City. Here a twelve-year-old boy met a man in the last bitter winter of his life. Joe Two Trees was the last of his people and he entrusted his story to the boy who became his only friend. It is the story of a man caught between to cultures, one lost, the the alien... the story of unforgettable loneliness, friendship, and courage... the story of one man's moving quest for dignity and peace.

In a hauntingly beautiful narrative, Theodore L. Kazimiroff tells the true story of his father, the young boy, and Joe Two Trees, the last Algonquin, in a work that has become an American Classic an an important contribution to the history of our land.
