Strong heart is a book about magic, history and legend in the Olympic peninsula written by Charlie Sheldon. It captures myths, lineage of families, ice age and more exhilarating facts of natives of Olympic peninsula.
It begins with Sarah Cooley being introduced to her grandfather Tom Olsen. Sarah of just thirteen years finds her grandfather in preparation for a backpacking trip to the Olympic national park to visit her great-great grandfather Bob-bob. After less argument, Tom and his friend William and Myra decide to take Sarah along with them. It all starts now when Sarah draws a picture of a short-faced bear but no one believes she had seen it because it was ancient and had gotten wiped out longtime. Sarah is disappointed by everyone and gets lost with a spear thrower of ancient times.
Much of the story is about Sarah who is found after eight days. But her story which she says she went through is like a mystery, myth or dream because all she says seem that she truly went through it yet the duration she took does not match with the time she spent lost. All of them see it as a dream albeit her experience in throwing darts perturbs thinking as its a rear virtue which even the best on YouTube had not portrayed due her accuracy at targets (yet learnt in dreams as they believe). Her story is justified well by Sergei as he goes through it and it confirms that his arguments with Myra were answered and Myra was right they were always in north America as natives long time not as theories suggested that they came from Siberia. It winds up with everyone intrigued as the short-faced bear shows-up to Sergei,William, Myra and Sarah leaving them not sure whether to believe Sarah's story or not.
The author gives me a wider picture of the natives of North America as the argument is to justify 'they were always there'. They didn't migrate from Africa or Asia. It really teaches about the culture of Sol duc and there origin. Its a detailed book and well woven on history, legend and magic with no observable grammatical errors.
I greatly recommend it for everyone interested in anthropology and the fact that it lies in other fiction part of writing. I really fell in love with reading history and as a matter of fact, I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. It also made me emotional as they destroyed the artifact which was a proof of history and they seemed untouchables until Sarah did it!
