MAXKII-WIIXCHEEW

THUMBNAIL: Young boys and their animals learn to survive together during the Esopus uprising of 1663.

SHORT SYNOPSIS: Maxkii-Wiixcheew discovers the meaning of his spirit name ("Red Wolfe" in English) as he and his new Huguenot friends Abraham and Isaac learn to communicate, using the ancient (and today nearly extinct) Lunaape language, while they and their faithful companions, two red wolves and an ox named Step, also learn how to live through the murderous rampage of Captain Kregier and his men during the Esopus uprising of 1663 in New Amsterdam (today known as New York).
