In 1884, young Corabelle Fellows, well-educated and gently bred, overcame her parents' objections and left her upper-calss home in Washington D.C. to become a church-sponsored teacher among the Indian people of Dakota Territory. For the next several years, she taught English, art, and domestic science on Rosebud, Pine Ridge, and Cheyenne River reservations. In return for her friendship, the students affectionately gave her the name Blue Star. A keen observer, especially of Indian Women's and Children's lives, she learned much about their family traditions. Her teaching career ended in 1888 when she married Samuel Campbell, A Dakota mixed-blood. Fifty years later, Corabelle recalled her experiences in Dakota land for Kunigunde Duncan, who turned them into this book, first published in 1938. Her story, with its personal perspective on the Indians struggles to keep their religion, lands, language, and way of life, will both intrigue and enthrall readers.
Prequel to Aaden Blue-Star series - A scifi book to give you hope for the future. There are so many science fiction books that portray a bleak future, but how many sci-fi books paint a bright future that we can all look forward to? This is one such book, using positive thoughts as a way to save the Earth. As Mahatma Gandhi reportedly said, be the change you want to see in the world. This story focuses on the power of positive thought to effect change in our world. It is an action-adventure with an environmental theme, mixing science-fiction with alternate historic events. It is written from the viewpoint of an extra-terrestrial civilization, a union of star groups concerned about humankind’s misuse of planet Earth. Merging the realms between fiction and fact, past and future, into a thought-provoking tale of two worlds and one future, the central theme of this book is the conservation crises facing planet Earth. This forms the backdrop as we follow the adventures of the Blue-Star Zakeera, of the Astar Galactic Command. Comparisons of modern day events with records of ancient Atlantis add flavor to the mix.
