Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 369 pages. Once again, Pulitzer-prize winning novelist Gerald ine Brooks takes an unlikely shard of little-known history and br ings it to vivid life. In 1665, a young Indian named Caleb from t he island of Martha's Vineyard became the first Native American t o graduate from Harvard College. Upon this slender factual scaffo ld, Brooks has created a luminously written, page turning tale of love and faith, magic and adventure. The narrator of Caleb's Cro ssing is Bethia Mayfield, growing up in the tiny island settlemen t of Great Harbor amid a small band of pioneers and Puritans. Pos sessed of a restless spirit and a quick and curious mind, Bethia yearns after an education that is closed to her by her sex. As of ten as she can, she slips away from the strictures of English soc iety to explore the island's glistening beaches and observe its n ative Wampanoag inhabitants. At the age of twelve, she encounters the young son of a chieftain, and the two forge a tentative, sec ret friendship that draws each into the alien world of the other. Bethia's father, Great Harbor's well-meaning and charismatic min ister, tries to convert the Wampanoag to his own strict Calvinism , awakening the wrath of the pawaaws, against whose shamanistic m agic he must test his own beliefs. One of his pet projects become s the education of Caleb. A year later, Caleb is in Cambridge, st udying Latin and Greek among the colonial elite. There, Bethia fi nds herself reluctantly indentured as a housekeeper and can close ly observe Caleb's intellectual and spiritual crossing of culture s, with all its risks and losses, triumphs and turmoil. Like Broo ks's beloved narrator Anna in Year of Wonders, Bethia proves an e motionally irresistible guide to the wild coasts of Martha's Vine yard, the drafty lecture rooms of early Harvard and the intimate spaces of the human heart.
