Petit Arbre is a book by Forrest Carter that tells the story of a boy raised by his Cherokee grandparents in the mountains of Tennessee during the Great Depression. Through their teachings, the boy learns to respect nature, survive in the mountainous environment, and understand the complex relationships between Native Americans and white society. It is a work that explores themes of identity, culture, and the connection with nature, ideal for young and adult readers interested in moving stories and reflections on life.
Asa Earl Carter was an American segregationist and Ku Klux Klan organizer who was prominent in the 1950s for his activism and later as a Western fiction novelist. He was particularly known for his work as a co-writer of George Wallace's well-known pro-segregation line of 1963, "Segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever." He ran in the Democratic primary for governor of Alabama as a white supremacist. Later, under the pseudonym of supposedly Cherokee writer Forrest Carter, he wrote The Rebel Outlaw: Josey Wales (1972), a Western novel that was adapted into a 1976 film featuring Clint Eastwood that was added to the National Film Registry, and The Education of Little Tree (1976), a best-selling, award-winning book which was marketed as a memoir but which turned out to be fiction.
