Brave Eagle grows to manhood amid the constant changes and turmoil on the Plains in the middle 1800s, when the white man’s world collides with the world of the Native American. Is Brave Eagle to be a man of war or a man of peace?

Can he learn to adapt to the white man’s world, or will he be able to hold on to the rich traditions of the grandfathers?
