The Legend of the Wood John C. Mehl

In the great high-country of the West, even before the time of the Indians, the harmonious life of a small group of families is threatened when Spanish explorers discover its existence. In addition to the drastic changes brought about by these men and their 'civilized' ways, some members of the community have discovered that there is more about their own people of the wood and their history than meets the eye. Through great instability and tragedy these men and women find themselves choosing between protecting the wood from losing its original identity or pursuing whatever journey these puzzling new truths may bring. Sifting through these mysterious secrets leads them to a calling and a purpose that is far greater than any of them could fathom.
