The Color of Lightning by Paulette Jiles

 My Rating:  4.6

1863 former Kentucky slave Britt Johnson and his wife Mary venture West looking to start a new life. Mary and her three children are kidnapped during a brutal Indian raid. Britt goes on a quest into Indian territory in hopes of restoring not only his family, but any other non-Indians that he believes have been kidnapped.


This was a very interesting perspective with Britt  If I had to recommend one book on American Indian kidnapping, it would be Follow The River which was excellent.
