About The Book

Marcia Sewall wrote about the settlement of the Plymouth colony in The Pilgrims of Plymoth and about the daily life of the Wampanoag Native Americans in People of the Breaking Day.

This new book illustrates what happened when these two people met. Told by a Wampanoag brave and a Pilgrim settler, Thunder from the Clear Sky shows two cultures with very different views of life.
