Old Shatterhand and his blood brother Winnetou, the Apache chief, are on the trail of robbers who have stolen an entire trunk full of gold nuggets. After rescuing Carpio, Shatterhand's old school friend in the wintry Rocky Mountains, they find shelter in a Pa-Ware, the extraordinary geological feature that becomes the stage for a life-changing experience with a grizzly bear.

About the Author
Some time during the late 1970s, I left Switzerland for a new life in New Zealand. I chose to acquire New Zealand citizenship and am proud to be able to call myself a Kiwi. In 1988, together with my Australian husband, David, I moved to Tasmania and have lived on Australia's island state ever since. My passion about the rare and threatened Tasmanian fauna and flora inspired a series of illustrated children's adventure novels set in picturesque Tasmanian wilderness, titled The Green Heart Series, with: 'Kangaroo Dog', 'Bluegum Christmas', 'Tazzie Devil Double Trouble', 'Quoll Quandary' and 'Golden Wings'; my own Bernese Mountain Dog, Bertie, inspired 'Swiss Tradition In Black And White', a compact work about the history of this Swiss icon, the breed's development and how to care for a magnificent and loving friend. In 2004, I began the translation of the Karl May novel, "Holy Night!", and continue to research and translate this enigmatic author of the nineteenth century. My website, Australian Friends of Karl May, http://www.karl-may-friends.net is a gateway to the world of Karl May in English.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Brilliant,
This review is from: Holy Night!: Karl May (2nd rev ed, out-of-print) (Paperback)
Marlies Bugmann did much more than translate one of Karl May's most important works. She actually rewrote "Holy Night"....not creating something new, but true Karl May in English. Marlies Bugmann knows Karl May, she shares his spirit and she transforms the original German into English/ American: with love and respect... brilliant! Thank you very much, Marlies Bugmann!Walter J.
