Summary: "The Story of Red Feather: A Tale of the American Frontier" by Edward Sylvester Ellis is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative follows the perilous adventures of Melville and his younger sister Dorothy as they journey through the tumultuous American frontier, encountering both the dangers of nature and the hostility of Native Americans, specifically a fierce Sioux warrior known as Red Feather. The novel explores themes of bravery, loyalty, and the complexities of human relationships against a backdrop of frontier life. At the start of the story, we meet Melville Clarendon and his sister Dorothy as they ride home from a visit to their uncle. Their journey soon takes a tense turn when they encounter a mysterious Sioux warrior who seems to be watching them from a distance. As they arrive home, they discover a letter that warns them of impending danger from Sioux raiders, led by the notorious Red Feather, who is on a rampage against settlers. As the tension escalates, Melville and Dot are quickly thrust into a life-or-death struggle as they attempt to evade danger, barricade themselves in their home, and rely on their wits to survive against the violent backdrop of the American frontier.
