Description The compelling coming-of-age tale of Julius Meyer-a Jewish immigrant who comes to the New World at the age of thirteen and grows to become the translator for many of the famous Indian chiefs of the late nineteenth century-and his cousin Alexander Herrmann, the renowned magician.

Publisher Description

Young Jewish immigrant Julius comes of age surrounded by the wild world of 1867 Nebraska. He befriends the mysterious Prophet John who saves his life when the two are captured by Ponca Indians. Living as a slave, Julius meets the noble chief Standing Bear and his young daughter Prairie Flower, with whom Julius falls in love. But Julius has reckoned without the arrival of his older cousin, Alexander-who, as the Great Herrmann, is the most famous young magician in America. Nor does he suspect the ultimate consequences of Alex's affair with Lady-Jane Little Feather, a glamorous-and murderous-prostitute destined to become the most scandalous woman on two continents.
