Where Two Rivers Meet, the Story of Black Hawk and Larkin Gatewood Carter, is based on a true story, handed down for generations and verified in the Warren County Historical Society of Missouri. Black Hawk was born at time of betrayal and tragedy for his people, Sac Native Americans. This story begins with Black Hawk's life as a boy and extends into the early 1800s. Sac boys must learn two things: to be brave and to be patient. Black Hawk was happy to learn the first thing; he was not happy to learn the second. The reader also meets Larkin and his daughter, Delphia, age eleven. Delphia, a pioneer girl has one desire: to attend Miss Pittman's Parlor School for Girls. If she doesn't go to school, she fears she'll be "as stupid as the butter churn." In these pages, filled with adventure, struggle and hope, the children from two cultures teach us how to appreciate one another. A highlight of the story occurs at the unexpected (and true) encounter of Larkin Gatewood Carter with Black Hawk and the surprising outcome.
