About this listen

 John White Hawk’s story is a compelling tale of adventure, hardship, and resilience set against the backdrop of the American West in 1867. The narrative begins with John’s family leaving their home in El Dorado, Arkansas, to seek a new life in Oregon, which his father calls the “promised land.” They travel in a modern covered wagon, pulled by six mules, and join a wagon train in St. Joseph, Missouri, led by the stern and experienced Captain Peterson.
The journey is long and arduous, filled with monotonous days and the rhythmic clatter of wagon wheels. Along the way, they stop in North Platte, Nebraska, for supplies, and John is tasked with keeping an eye out for Cheyenne Indians as they enter their territory. Despite the initial excitement, the journey soon turns perilous when John is kidnapped by a Cheyenne scouting party.
John’s new life in the Cheyenne village is harsh and challenging. He becomes a domestic slave for a warrior named Badger and his wife, Mourning Dove. Despite numerous attempts to escape, John is repeatedly caught and disciplined. He learns to perform various tasks, such as gathering firewood and helping with chores, while the other children in the village stare at him because of his white skin and blonde hair.
Throughout his captivity, John shows remarkable resilience and adaptability. He learns to navigate his new environment and the cultural differences, all while holding onto the hope of one day reuniting with his family. The story captures the essence of the pioneer spirit, the harsh realities of frontier life, and the strength of a young boy facing unimaginable challenges.
