| Summary | "Menotah: A Tale of the Riel Rebellion" by Ernest G. Henham is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The tale unfolds against the backdrop of the Canadian North-West Rebellion, centering around the character Menotah, a young native woman whose story intertwines with themes of passion and cultural upheaval due to the encroachment of white settlers. The opening of the story introduces a lush and intricate forest setting where two hunters, Winton and Sinclair, engage in a tense atmosphere filled with the foreboding of war. As they discuss the possible uprising led by Louis Riel, tension mounts as Winton experiences a moment of deer fever, which brings into focus his emotional struggles. Concurrently, the story hints at the perspective of the indigenous characters, particularly the implications of the rebellion for their community. The voice of a young girl, Menotah, emerges, portraying a spirit of youthful innocence and joy that starkly contrasts with the overarching themes of conflict and sorrow that are anticipated as the narrative unfolds.
