Written in 1953, The Light in the Forest is a historical novel set in colonial Pennsylvania in the 1760s. True Son, the main character, was captured and adopted into a Native American family as a baby. However, as a result of a prisoner exchange, he returns to his white family after living with his adopted family for fifteen years. Much of the book depicts True Son's struggle with adjusting to his birth family and white culture. Additionally, the Native American perspective of white encroachment and settlement of Indian lands is one of the underlying themes of the book. As a language arts/social studies block teacher, I think The Light in the Forest is a good book for teaching two of the many types of conflict found in literature: man versus man and man versus self. In sum, this is a well-crafted book in which the internal conflict of the main character is not satisfactorily resolved.

EXCELLENT BOOK - ONE OF MY FAVORITES
I have had a paper-back copy of this book many times, however, I have always had difficulty in obtaining a hard-cover copy of this book in the past, until recently. I highly recommend this book
as it is one of my favorites --- the story is about moral conduct in a Native American family and how situations should be handled. The plot is simple and very well told. The book is an easy read and moves along rapidly. I recommend this book highly.
