In 1953 Albert Speer, Germany's Minister of Armaments & War Production during World War II, wrote from his cell in Spandau Prison, West Berlin, regarding the genocide of the American Indian. The Nazis' study of the treatment and eradication of the American Indian was an element in the plan for the "Final Solution" - the eradication of European Jews and others deemed undesirable or a threat to the Aryan order. Hitler, Heinrich Himmler, Adolf Eichmann, and others who administered the Nazi Holocaust had looked to the Indian Removal Act of 1830 and the subsequent actions of the United States Government as the blueprint for annihilation of a people, a culture, and a way of life. In Losing St. Christopher, Totsuhwa, the revered shaman of the Cherokee Nation, struggles against the assimilation of his people into the white world of men he sees as invaders. The colonists, along with Cherokee who are trying to bridge both worlds, see him as a barbarous threat. When Totsuhwa's visions show him the outcome, it is as black as his deep set haunting eyes. Chancellor, his son, takes a white wife following study at a missionary school and the shaman's fears seem realized. Conflicts between cultures and within the family erupt when Totsuhwa's only grandchild is forced onto the Trail of Tears. In the chase that follows, an estranged love fights to stem the ugly flow of racism that is moving in two directions. "History is written by the victorious, but when almost forgotten historical characters are brought to life, and their stories told, they are preserved through the ages, and in this preservation David-Michael Harding has succeeded." - Principal Chief Bill John Baker, Cherokee Nation, Tahlequah, OK

I have written my personal diary and autobiography in memory of my dear and departed mother, Mary Maxine Roome (maiden name). Even though I never had the pleasure of knowing her, I have been told that her greatest desire was to write her story. Since she wasnt able to achieve this, I am making an effort to gratify her desire by explaining how I came to be while honoring both my father, Galen Arthur La Touch, and my mother, Mary Maxine Roome, whom I surely would have loved so very much if I had been given the chance. From having been a ward of the courts and the State of Indiana upon my birth and being placed into foster homes, orphanage homes, including state mental institutions during my younger years, I experienced many frustrations of not knowing who or where was my natural family.
