Francesca Fryer continues her story of the Indian-White Encounter at the mouth of the Klamath River. Moving upriver, the story continues to unfold, focusing upon childhood, continuance, and the eradication of physical barriers, where the world of non-Indians, Ruth and Harry Roberts, merges with the Yurok Indian world. And we learn the timeless lesson of perseverance.

About the Author
With an MA in history from UCLA, by 1964 Francesca Fryer moved to inland Redding. With the Northern California Indian-White Encounter as her subject, on a family fishing trip she discovered her theme and symbol: the everchanging finger of sand at the mouth of the Klamath River, reaching out first from one side, then the other - an intersection of two races, two cultures - striving to cross barriers, and never quite succeeding.
