Book excerpt: The relationship between indigenous people and American settlers has historically been a strained one, and California’s Sonoma Valley is no exception. Red Cloud is a local indigenous man who yearns for peace between the two groups - but is planting acorns enough to bring this peace? Published by Jack London in 1916, this play brings life to the long-standing issues of colonization, equality, and peace. Jack London (1876–1916) was an American writer and social activist. He grew up in the working class, but his unflinching realism eventually earned him the status of one of the highest-paid authors of his time. Many of his novels are considered classics today, his most notable being ‘Call of the Wild’, ‘Sea Wolf’, and ‘White Fang’. Fans of Mark Twain, Rudyard Kipling, and Charles Dickens will enjoy his ability to make the mundane captivating.

Book excerpt: In the morning of the world, while his tribe makes its camp for the night in a grove, Red Cloud, the first man of men, and the first man of the Nishinam, save in war, sings of the duty of life, which duty is to make life more abundant. The Shaman, or medicine man, sings of foreboding and prophecy. The War Chief, who commands in war, sings that war is the only way to life. This Red Cloud denies, affirming that the way of life is the way of the acorn- planter, and that whoso slays one man slays the planter of many acorns. Red Cloud wins the Shaman and the people to his contention. After the passage of thousands of years, again in the grove appear the Nishinam. In Red Cloud, the War Chief, the Shaman, and the Dew-Woman are repeated the eternal figures of the philosopher, the soldier, the priest, and the woman—types ever realizing themselves afresh in the social adventures of man. Red Cloud recognizes the wrecked explorers as planters and life-makers, and is for treating them with kindness. But the War Chief and the idea of war are dominant The Shaman joins with the war party, and is privy to the massacre of the explorers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-The Acorn Planter by Jack London.In "The Acorn Planter", London used the act of planting acorns to celebrate the arrival of agriculture in the Sonoma Valley and, in doing so, linked acorn planting to peacebuilding. A local indigenous man named Red Cloud is portrayed as a peacemaker. There is tension between the Red Cloud people and the arrival of the first American settlers and the play ends in tragedy. It is clear that London was seen in Red Cloud. In the story, Red Cloud uses the acorn plantation as a metaphor to make amends. This is how London perceived the act of planting too. The acorn represented peace because it represented the fruits of agriculture and London felt that the generosity of agriculture would lead to peace among men. In the words of Red Cloud,"When you sow kindness, you reap kindness. When you sow blood, you reap blood. He who plants an acorn gives way to life. He who kills a man kills the pot of a thousand acorns.
