Barkskins by Annie Proulx

5.0

Great book. I've read some reviews quibbling about the Native American patois (sounds like Tonto talking to the Loan Ranger), the lack of character development (there are quite a few characters and over 95,000 days, give her a break), and how, once she gets to the 21st Century, it seems like she is in a hurry to finish (yeah, but I think the idea is, by then, irreparable harm has been done and our protagonists are not going to make the kind of impact made by the proceeding generations).
