SuitabookThe trail of the Spanish horse
James Willard Schultz
- Reading
- If the danger or ceremonial fast raises questions, pause at those scenes and invite your reader to say what they think is happening and how it feels to them.
- Themes
- Responsibility and risk: Tom takes his uncle’s horse without permission, then sets out to recover it after it is stolen. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Cultural and ceremonial context: Tom and Pitamakan undertake a dangerous journey, and Tom undergoes a sacred vision fast before setting out. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Worth knowing
- The plot includes a camp raid, a dangerous journey and a tense encounter in an enemy camp. The vision fast is described as dangerous; the degree of detail or intensity is unclear.
