Book Review: Cynthia Ann Parker, Mother, Wife, Friend, Comanche Spirit
Summary: 5 Stars
When you first experience Cynthia's world, you can only imagine her terror and fear at being thrust into a world so different from the smothering existence of life with the "white-eyes". Forming a friendship not unlike our own, she befriends "Star Name" in what will be a journey of life, love, challenge and heartbreaks she becomes a young woman, torn between hating the man who captured her, and loving him for the sensuous hunter he becomes to her. As the Fall of Cynthia's life turns to Winter, secure in the fact that she is with her loved ones: Wanderer, Quanah, Pecan, Quail, Gathered Up, Flower, and Star Name, your heart will break. A free spirit all her life, roaming the vast Staked Plains, feeling the wind on her face as she travels with her family, her life is changed forever.
You will weep for her, wish you were her, long to change her unavoidable destiny as Cynthia's life comes to a close, in a way that will keep you hoping up to the last page that her life will not end in agony.
Summary of Ride the Wind
In 1836, when she was nine years old, Cynthia Ann Parker was kidnapped by Comanche Indians. This is the story of how she grew up with them, mastered their ways, married one of their leaders, and became, in every way, a Comanche woman. It is also the story of a proud and innocent people whose lives pulsed with the very heartbeat of the land. It is the story of a way of life that is gone forever....From the Paperback edition.
