You Are Invited To Meet The Author! Robert J. Conley is widely regarded as one of the finest writers of the West and of his own tribe, the Cherokee. War Woman is perhaps his finest work yet -- a sweeping novel of the early history of the Cherokee, and of one remarkable woman.

"WAR WOMAN"
Published by St. Martin’s Press
ISBN 0-312-17058-0.

"War Woman, born Whirlwind, is brave, headstrong, clever, and believed by many in her town to be witch. Having heard stories of the brutal Spanish to the south, and believing that there is a great profit to be made from trade with them, she leads a small band of youths on the treacherous road south, across hostile territories, to make their fortunes. This journey, blessed with success and marred by terrible tragedy, marks the beginning of War Woman’s own personal journey as she leads her people by example and guidance through the terrifying times ahead, during which the landscape of the Cherokee people is changed forever by the slowly encroaching European settlers.
"Spanning much of a century, from the late 1500s to the mid 1600s, from early trading with the Europeans to later conflicts, War Woman is a sweeping novel of history as one woman guides her people through a dangerous time."
NOTE: The author sends his hello's and hopes to meet all his fellow Cherokees in Santa Monica on Feb. 15th!
