The Sterkarm Handshake

“By the time I was thirteen I knew about as much about American Indians as a good  many anthropologists that I have met since.”

“They know the sociological interpretations of why the Indians are the way they are or were, but they don’t know much about Indians. And I did know.”

For Andrea Mitchell, an anthropologist working among the Sterkarms, none of this matters. In love with Per -- a young Sterkarm warrior -- and feted as a beautiful Elf-May, she’s never known such happiness in her own time.
