Hawk Owen has always marveled at the natural beauty of his home in northern Minnesota. He longed to explore the countryside and live off the land, just as his Uncle Robert taught him as a boy. That same curiosity is what gave Hawk the courage he needed to walk away from his pa's farm on that fateful day in August 1861. According to the townspeople, Indians had not been a problem around Otter Tail County in twenty years. When tragedy struck the Owen family, it was up to Hawk's brother Jake to make things right. Jake found himself alone to seek his revenge and follow the path of his brother -- but what he encountered on his journey was enough to change him forever. Follow the Owen brothers as they embark on an adventure at a time in history where courage and honor were key to survival. Hawk's Valley is a story that will take you beyond the history books to experience first hand the events leading to the Indian battles at Fort Ridgely, Redwood Ferry, and Birch Coulee. You'll find yourself walking alongside some of the most legendary names in Minnesota's history. Along wit Hawk and Jake, you'll meet and interact with historical figures like Alexander Ramsey, Henry Sibley, and Joseph Rolette, as well as Indian legends Little Crow and John Other Day.

Arvid Lloyd Williams, author of the acclaimed Hawk's Valley: A Good Place To Die, has teamed with author Bonnie Shallbetter to bring you the long-awaited dramatic sequel, Sophie's Hawk: Spirit of the Raptor. 
 The Indian wars in Minnesota were declared officially over by the end of 1862. However, bands of hostile Sioux still roamed the Big Woods and the prairies of Minnesota. Hawk and Jake Owen are appointed by Colonel Sibley to search out and rescue a missionary who had been captured by the Sioux. Follow them through hostile Indian country along the Minnesota frontier to Big Stone Lake, through Brown's Valley, around Lake Traverse and into Dakota Territory. Through their adventures you'll meet Standing Buffalo, the friendly chief of the Sisseton band of Sioux, and Little Crow, Chief of the Mdewakanton band of Sioux and reluctant leader of the hostile warriors. Old friends are reunited and new and interesting characters are introduced, each with his own story to tell, in the continuing saga that is a blend of true-life history, fiction, romance, and tragedy mixed lightly with a dash of Williams/Shallbetter humor. You will chuckle at the antics of Mister Erickson and Grampaw Wells. You ll shudder from the violence of war -- and perhaps shed a tear.
