Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Currents of Change is a sweeping 17th-century historical novel that brings to life the powerful Occaneechi (Saponi) nation on Occoneechee Island along the Roanoke River. Through the eyes of Chief Posseclay and his family, readers enter a vibrant Indigenous world shaped by skilled hunters, expert farmers, gifted artisans, and far-reaching traders who guided the Great Trading Path-one of the most influential routes in early American history. As European settlers push inland and foreign goods drift upriver, the Occaneechi confront rising pressures that threaten their independence, alliances, and identity. Their homeland becomes a crossroads of cultures, commerce, and conflict, forcing the community to navigate shifting political landscapes and the accelerating forces of colonial expansion. What follows is a powerful story of resilience, leadership, and the determination to preserve a way of life against the mounting tides of change. Rich in Native American history, frontier detail, and the cultural heritage of the Piedmont tribes, Currents of Change offers an immersive portrait of an Indigenous community standing at the edge of profound transformation. Perfect for readers of historical fiction, Indigenous studies, early American history, and novels rooted in cultural identity and survival, this book delivers a vivid, human story shaped by tradition, courage, and the enduring strength of community. From the Lake Gaston Short-Story Series, where regional history, whispered legends, and imagined mysteries blend into atmospheric short fiction. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Deep in the heart of the 17th-century American wilderness, where the majestic Roanoke River carved its path through ancient forests, lay Occoneechee Island-a natural fortress and a bustling hub of life. Here, nestled amidst towering pines and flowing waters, the Occaneechi people built their vibrant nation. More than just a remote tribe, the Occaneechi were masterful strategists and keen traders, commanding the vital Great Trading Path that linked disparate peoples across the vast continent. Their island home pulsed with purpose: hunters ranging far afield for game and furs, women tending fertile fields on the mainland and crafting exquisite baskets, skilled artisans shaping stone and clay, and the entire community working as one to harvest the river's bounty. Through the eyes of Chief Posseclay and his family you will discover a people deeply connected to their land, their traditions, and each other. Explore their ingenious methods of survival, their intricate social fabric, and the delicate balance they maintained between peace and defense. But as the furs flowed eastward and strange European goods arrived upstream, the Occaneechi's cherished independence faced its greatest test. A new world was encroaching, bringing with it both opportunity and unforeseen peril. Currents of Change is a vivid journey into a lost world, a compelling story of resilience, community, and the fight to preserve a way of life amidst the unstoppable tides of change.
