James R. Mead, explorer, naturalist, and plainsman, came to Kansas Territory in 1859. He hunted buffalo, built trading posts in Towanda, on the Ninnescah River near Clearwater, and came to Wichita in 1870. He was responsible for bringing the cattle drives to Wichita, and was a good friend of Jesse Chisholm, Kit Carson, Buffalo Bill Mathewson, and Chief Satanta. Mead was a state senator and president of the Kansas State Historical Society. His writings encompass the territorial days through the march of civilization, and give a firsthand account of buffalo, Native Americans, and the honor of the early settlers.

At a time when volcanoes were being born in what is now New Mexico, clans of hunter-gatherers were already living in the Great Plains. Primordial beasts roamed the land: creatures like the giant sloth, the flat-faced bear, the woolly mammoth, and the dire wolf hunted there, often coming into conflict with their two-legged prey. When Do-na-ti reaches adulthood, he slays the badger for his ceremonial cloak. By wedding E-lo-ni, he unites their clans. Together they must face battle with dire wolves, a stampede of mammoths that destroys their lodge, and the birth of a new volcano, fulfilling an old woman's prophecy and Do-na-ti's conviction that his son must become brother to the mountain. "Mayhar has a way of drawing the reader seamlessly into her historical narratives. You can smell the breath of the dire wolf as it closes in for the kill!" -- Robert Reginald
