Tulli and Atobi

Orphaned at an early age, Tulli and Atobi are cast adrift in the vast regions of early American Nevada. Their survival was not expected, but they never let go of each other. There are love stories about romance, but there are very few love stories about a man and his sister. Providence allowed them to live with several tribes that called the Sierra Nevada Regions home. They learned survival skills from such tribes as the Wasi Siw, the Paiute, the Yokuts, the Shoshone, the Ute, and the Comanche. Taken in as tribal slaves and required to work for men and women not willing to treat them as children formed their adolescence. They learned how to hunt; they learned how to track; they learned how to use nature as a means of survival, and they learned how to depend on each other. This is a story about survival as well as family love. Tulli and Atobi lived a life of constant change and tribulations, only to discover in the end, all that matters is 'each other'.
