Excellent read. Long but descriptive.

This is and excellent enjoyable read. It does leave one wondering how much research went into the background of Ms. Robson's work. She describes how wonderful the Indian tribes were to their captive white children. She does go into the very poor treatment of more mature captives. As a juxtoposition, one could read the short novel "Where the Broken Heart Still Beats" 'The Story of Cynthia Ann Parker' by Carolyn Meyer.

Ride The Wind

This book takes young Cindy and transforms her into a strong and powerful leader. I could not put this book down and have even read it twice more.

Not Bad

"Ride the Wind" is a historical fiction novel that details events in the life of a woman named Cynthia Anne Parker (or Naduah). The book itself is well written with a very descriptive style, but sometimes it gets a bit too descriptive. If you are squeamish or faint of heart I would not recommend this book for you as it is not sparing in its details of raids and battles. I would recommend this book if you enjoy TONS of action with a hint of romance. Not very relevant but extremely noticeable (to me anyway) is the authors never ending use of the word undulating (count it it's ALL OVER THE PLACE). Overall a good read, especially if you like stories about cowboys and Indians

A classic!

Not only a great story, but based on real people & events. A talented writer who writes about an enthralling time period.
