Keechie


Phil Whitley 

http://www.PhilWhitley.com


Ever since young Brian discovered his first arrowhead, he knew that he wanted to be an archaeologist. There was just something about holding an object that had been created by someone from an earlier civilization that spoke to him.

The story begins as Brian, on one of his frequent field trips, discovers an old half-breed Indian woman. Completely self-sufficient and content with her circumstances in life, Keechie teaches him the skills of survival, along with a love and appreciation of the natural and supernatural worlds.

The survival skills learned from Keechie prove to be the difference between life and death many years after her death for Brian and his own family in the final chapters of this story.

It begins in rural Georgia in the 1950s—a shameful time of racial bigotry and segregation of the races, contrasted by being referred to as the “Age of Innocence.”
