| Summary |
"Youth Crow Raider" by Francis Lynde Kroll is a novel likely written in the mid-20th century. The story follows a young Crow boy named Bent Arrow as he strives to prove his worth and overcome the challenges imposed by an injured leg. Set against the backdrop of Native American life and culture, the narrative explores themes of bravery, resilience, and the significance of tradition as Bent Arrow navigates the complexities of his identity and community. The opening of the book introduces Bent Arrow participating in a running race among his peers, despite the pain from his previously injured leg. As he struggles to keep up, he receives praise from his uncle, Flying Arrow, who believes in his potential as a runner. Following the race, Bent Arrow visits the medicine man, Clawing Bear, who shares a vision of danger and the need for an eagle feather, a symbol of strength and protection. The narrative hints at upcoming conflicts with the Sioux, suggesting an action-packed story where Bent Arrow's courage and determination will be tested as he embarks on a personal journey toward proving himself and fulfilling his destiny.
