Weetamoo: Heart of the Pocassets

by Patricia Clark Smith


Weetamoo will succeed her father as Sachem (Chief) of the Pocasset tribe in Massachusetts. Fourteen-year-old Weetamoo must learn the fundamental values and disciplines of a true sachem, but she must also be prepared for the inevitable threat her people will face from the encroaching Pilgrim settlers, the Coat-men.
