Great read...

And very hard to put down bedtime arrive a too soon. I truly enjoy historical fiction and have read several accounts of the war along the Ohio river and beyond. This series is one of the best so far. Although my family arrived before the American Revolution, they moved west through the southern frontier. So it is a fascinating for me to read a story of the history of the moved west in the northern frontier. This one adds more to my understanding of the trials in that move west. About to read book 3.
