Originally published anonymously in The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, with an earlier draft titled Arrow-Tip appearing in The Aristidean, Half-Breed A Tale of the Western Frontier represents one of the rare long-form works of fiction by Walt Whitman from the early stages of his career. This gripping narrative follows Arrow-Tip, a Native American wrongfully accused of murdering local blacksmith Peter Brown. Despite clear evidence of his innocence, Arrow-Tip faces the grim fate of a death sentence. Compounding his plight is Boddo, a deformed hunchback ostracized for his mixed-race heritage, who seeks revenge against those who have tormented him. As tensions rise and prejudice takes root, the story unfolds with themes of injustice, vengeance, and the struggle for dignity in a harsh frontier world. - Summary by ChuckWCopyright 19th and 20th Century Fiction Science Sciences sociales
