John Cameron Butler is only 4 years old when he's captured, adopted, and renamed " True Son" by the Lenni Lenape tribe on the frontier of 1750s Pennsylvania. He thrives in his new society, assimilating happily, and regarding himself as an Indian.

It's a poignant search for personal identity within a tragic examination of two cultures in conflict. October Part One
