Our Pastor’s Visits (1857)

Snatched from the Motherlandas wound, slave traders ship Princess Zerondi to America as a victim of the Triangular Slave Trade. Lord Welch purchases Zerondi while he is intoxicated. En route to his plantation, Welch falls from the wagon while his horses lead Zerondi to a field of wild oats where she frees herself. Malnourished, dehydrated, and covered with severe wounds, Zerondi roams through the wilderness until she faints and remains for several days. Meanwhile, Yellow Wolf, a young Indian prince, leaves his village and heads for the sacred mountain on his first vision quest. After traveling for several days, Yellow Wolf discovers Zerondias near lifeless body. Aware of her slave status, Yellow Wolf spends several weeks in the forest nursing Zerondi back to health. Once Zerondi gains strength, Yellow Wolf takes her to his village. Will they be able to overcome racism and language barriers?
