A Peacemaker for Warring Nations: The Founding of the Iroquois League by Joseph Bruchac

3.75

An important story for any one living in the Eastern part of North America (and thus, in or near the ancestral land of the Haudenosaunee/Iroquois Confederacy). I felt like this was not the most compelling possible version of the story but I appreciated that it is likely a very accurate telling. At times, it seemed to include things that would be important for Haudenosaunee today to understand the origins of cultural symbols and practices, but which don't have a huge significance elsewhere. I found the art fine but not especially inspiring. However, because of the importance of knowing this story for people living in this land, I was glad I read it.
