River Without End: A Novel of the Suwannee

by Pamela Jekel

Pamela Jekel’s historical sagas have won national acclaim, received awards from the Southwestern and Western Booksellers Association, and been NY Times bestsellers. In River Without End, Jekel brings to life a wilderness swamp of mystery and magic, savagery and sanctuary, and the Seminole people of Osceola and the region of the Suwannee River. An epic that sweeps across two centuries and all old Florida, River Without End brings to life Morning Dew, Osceola’s woman, who sustained him through long years of captivity, Not Black, Osceola’s granddaughter, who struggled to hold onto her land and her heritage while Civil War destroyed her people, and Gad, Osceola’s great-grandson, who fought for his future on a land that defied man’s every attempt at control and conquest… and still does. River Without End was published in ten foreign languages and was a B.Dalton Booksellers and Waldenbooks bestseller.
