Description
AUGURY interweaves the essentials of a magnificent historical event with memorable characters to tell a story of high drama, heroism, honor, and triumph of the human spirit against overwhelming odds. It is a story about the obligations of friendship and a young man´s rite of passage that will for him and for his enemy, change their lives in mysterious, redemtive, and terrible ways. AUGURY derives its power and sweep in the clash of peoples of transcendent moment in America´s ´winning of the West´, forever changing the fortunes of two cultures and all those caught-up in the folly of violence, ignorance and prejudice. AUGURY sustains the hope that love lost may be found anew no matter how grievous the tragedy, how terrible the transgression of heart...and trust.
