Its purpose was to replenish provisions and to barter guns, knives, and trinkets for valuable sea otter pelts and, incidentally, to obtain the sexual services of the young women. A group of rebellious Indian youths, infuriated by the arrogance and disdain of the white men, carried out a violent plan to massacre the crew and plunder the ship. Surviving the slaughter were Jewitt, the appealing and skillful ironsmith, and Thompson, the dour sailmaker. Eagle Song is the turbulent tale of their two-year captivity … seen through the eyes of Siam, a Nootkan nobleman. … Eagle Song was suggested by the brief memoirs of John Jewitt.’ (from front flap)
