I was slightly disappointed in this story, compared to other works by Mr Conley about the Cherokee. I wonder if he felt inhibited telling a story of the Creek, traditional enemies of the Cherokee, even though he was encouraged to do so by his Creek friends. At any rate, the storytelling seems stiff, stilted and "just the facts" almost.
