The Ways of Our Clan
ᎠᏈᎾAQUINA — MY NEPHEW
Aquina: The Ways of Our Clan is a beautifully illustrated collection of wisdom inspired by Yona Equa, the Cherokee warrior from Ryan Michael's historical novel Indigo: A Warrior's Burden.
Imagined as Yona's final teachings to his beloved nephews, this 32-page, full-color keepsake explores courage, loyalty, faith, sacrifice, brotherhood, leadership, and the quiet choices that define our character.
Rooted in the author's Christian faith, Aquina is a heartfelt tribute to fatherhood, family, and the responsibility of passing wisdom from one generation to the next.
A meaningful gift for Christmas, birthdays, graduations, or life's important milestones, Aquina is meant to be given to a son, nephew, student, or anyone whose life you have the privilege of guiding. A special inscription page allows you to personalize your gift, transforming it into a lasting keepsake.
More than a book to read, Aquina is an invitation to begin a family tradition—one in which wisdom is shared, love is remembered, and each generation carries something meaningful forward.
A man's voice may fall silent. What he gives to those he loves can speak for generations.
The novel behind the lessons. A young Cherokee hunter in a world beginning to fracture, set in the southern Appalachians during the most violent decades of colonial expansion.
