All families are different. This one just happens to be based on a little white lie. Henry Soles winding path to Nebraska started with his kidnapping. He was just a baby when he was taken from his parents. Growing up among a roaming, Midwest, Native American tribe, Mama was the only mother figure he had ever known. And he had no reason to suspect that anything was wrong. Until he became old enough to recognize that his white skin and the attention it drew meant he was different somehow. Eventually, Mama could lie to him no longer. And everything Henry had known to be the truth was shattered in an instant. Reeling from pain and confusion, and seeing no other reasonable option, the young man decided to head west. In search of his roots and of the family he lost. Little does he know, hes about to learn the greatest lesson there is: That its not important where you come from. But rather what you make of your life with what you have. Review A Winding Path to Flat Water is the best novel I have read in a good while. I have long been interested in the theme of Anglo children being raised as Native Americans from the time I read the first classic of that theme, The Light in the Forest by Conrad Richter to the 2013 best-selling novel, The Son by Philipp Meyer. A Winding Path pursues that theme but so much more. I unreservedly recommend this book. -- David Komatz, M.A., M. Ed., Psy. D. Rob Soles has told an amazing and engaging story of perseverance, overcoming adversity, and hope. He has done so with a mesmerizing tale of how his great-grandfather made his way to Nebraska in the early days of western settlement. His depiction of the interaction between white settlers and the native tribes is thoughtful and mesmerizing and shows a more realistic and human relationship than is typically shown by the entertainment world or Hollywood. Rob writes with a beautifully depictive style that allows the reader to easily imagine what the characters are seeing, feeling, and experiencing. -- Barry L.
