Satanta's Woman [Dramatized Adaptation]

Narrated by A Full Cast, Eric Singdahlsen, Bob Payne and 27 more

In 1864 the frontier cavalry had been withdrawn to fight in the War Between the States, and the able-bodied men had enlisted to join the cause, leaving the families in the Brazos River valley very much on their own...and nearly defenseless. The Comanches and the Kiowas decided this was the perfect time to rid their land forever of the invaders who had threatened their very existence. The legendary Kiowa war chief Satanta personally led many of the brutal raids, and during one of them Satanta claimed a prize for himself—a beautiful widow named Adrianne Chastain. He was determined to make Adrianne a true Kiowa woman and one of his wives, but could either of them survive this clash of cultures unscathed? And could Adrianne survive at all?

Cynthia Haseloff

Cynthia Haselhoff was born in Vernon, Texas, and named after Cynthia Ann Parker, perhaps the best-known of 19th century white female Indian captives. The history and legends of the West were part of her upbringing in Arkansas. Haselhoff once said, “I love the West, perhaps not all of its reality, for much of it was cruel and hard, but certainly its dream and hope…” The Chains of Sarai Stone is her sixth frontier novel.

Satanta’s Woman by Cynthia Haseloff is the story of a frontier woman who is kidnapped by the Kiowa Indians along with her two young granddaughters. One of the children stays with her and is adopted into the family of Satanta, only to go missing in the confusion of the Sand Creek Massacre.. The other child, a baby disappears into the Indian Nation.As her life with the Kiowa goes on, she comes to understand their ways and sympathize with them. She and Satanta, the warrior that kidnapped her come to love one another. Eventually she is found by white soldiers and returned to the white world where she is reunited with her granddaughter. Satanta is taken and put on trail where her testimony saves him from being hung. He is however, imprisoned for the rest of his life.A sad, yet touching story of the last days of the truly “wild” Indian, and, more personally a doomed yet enduring love. Written in a straight-forward, simple yet heart-felt manner, I was both enthralled and moved by this book.
