Pollard is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The book focuses on the life of the protagonist, Roger Boscowen, and his experiences on the New England border as he navigates the complex relationships between early settlers and Native Americans amidst the struggles of their intertwined fates. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Charles Langlade, who is preparing to leave his home and family to join the Native American tribes and abandon what is perceived to be a birthright, causing great distress for his mother and friends. The emotional fallout from his departure is palpable, particularly through the lens of his sister Loïs, and the elder Nathaniel Boscowen, as they navigate their feelings of loss and fear of change. The opening chapters establish a rich landscape of familial ties and tensions, hinting at a broader conflict that looms on the horizon, involving friendships strained by choices and the allegiance to their respective peoples. The foundation is laid for themes of loyalty, courage, and cultural collision as Roger Boscowen's journey unfolds.
