The Last Algonquin
It was written by Theodore Kazimiroff
It is about an indian man who lived in New York in 1924. It talks about his bitter struggles and his remarkable courage. At age 13 he moved to Manhattan but had to flee after killing a robber as self defence. From there he found a back-breaking job in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. When the civil war broke out he was forced to go back to his birth place and once again live alone. He was suspended by a lost culture and a alienated one. My years later he was an old man and entrusted his legacy a young boy scout who became his only friend.
Yes, I do believe that it will be appropriate for a ten year old because now days young people are starting to understand more things at a younger age, so I believe it will be alright from the description on amazon.
You can buy the book from any book shop or online. The cheapest price i could find was on amazon and it was for 1 cent on amazon and it has been used and read by 20 people.
Yes, there is a movie on this book called "the home of the last algonquin" and you can find the clips on youtube or you can buy the movie from any movie store.
Here is the link to the website that I found the info on: http://www.thelastalgonquin.com/video.php
Thankyou for reading my blog, see you in the next one
