About Product: When Iitats is given by her father to nineteen-year-old Indian Scout Samuel Loper, the trusting Paiute girl is confused. Though only twelve, Iitats assumes she is to be the young frontiersman's wife. But he says not, explaining that she is simply being taken to be raised by the Mormon settlers in southern Utah. Why then, she wonders, has the Great Spirit whispered to her that the man whom the Indians call “Eagle Who Walks on the Ground" is to be her husband? And how is she to keep her heart from breaking when he brings a new bride home to the little town of Harmony? In “To Soar with the Eagle”, master storyteller Blaine M. Yorgason examines the fascinating culture of the Paiute, showing the reverence they feel for the earth and its creatures. He also weaves a tale of adventure, missionary zeal, and the settlement of the Old West. At the same time, he reveals the gentle heart of an Indian girl who grows to be a woman while loving a man she seems destine.
