About the book
As the Ice Age comes to an end, the climate is changing and game is scarce. Led by a youg shaman who receives a Dream from the spirit of the Wolf, a handful of courageous men and women dare to cross the fragile land bridge linking the Eurasian continent to the Americas to find an untouched, unspoiled continent. Set in what is now Alaska, this is the magnificent saga of the vision-filled man who led his people to an awesome destiny, and the courageous woman whose love and bravery drove them on in pursuit of that dream. A sweeping epic of pre-history that tells the story of the initial migration of Siberian hunters across Beringia and into Alaska. People of the Wolf is the first volume in North America's Forgotten Past, a multi-volume saga that traces the history of these pioneer peoples and their descendants, bringing the story of the ancestors of today's Native American peoples to life in an unforgettable saga of hardship and determination, conflict and passion.
