The Remnant's Legacy
Canaan has fallen to the Hebrews. Israel’s legacy now rests on the shoulders of the settlers.
Once the land was divided among the Israelites, Nephtali’s tribe settled in northern Israel. Moses, his wife Hannah, and her family established themselves along the shores of Galilee, where Moses spent years relentlessly educating his people and repelling the Canaanite attacks on their settlement.
In his later years, Moses passes the torch to his nephew, Seth, to protect and continue the legacy of their people by recording Israel’s history. Seth tells of his uncle’s early years in the desert, the legends he personally knew that are mere shadows to others, and the struggles to take Canaan and settle the promised land.
Seth also writes about his grandfather, Asher, the Remnant Son, born a Canaanite but later converted to Judaism. Seth tells us of Asher’s life on his family’s farm before the Hebrews came, Ildab the fighter, and wicked King Jabin.
Seth builds on Moses’ already prosperous business as the local scribe and teacher. He gives us stories of the others who arrived with Moses and of Moses’ son, young Gideon, who lived years as a fighter and caravanner before returning home.
The stories Seth gives us pull back the curtain on daily life in their compound and introduce us to new exciting characters, distant lands, and exotic creatures.
The Remnant’s Legacy is the third book in the Journeys of the Remnant Series by Michael Shuffield.

Stories of Hero’s
If you are looking for highly engaging and interesting stories to read to your grandchildren, children or just during family reading time I highly recommend this series by Michael Shuffield. The character lessons, stories of true courage, and value of humility are well depicted in the pages of these books. Especially valuable to young men, inspirational for young boys, but thrilling to young ladies as well, who will learn valuable lessons about honor, respect, and value in the ways we are all uniquely blessed with talents for the benefit of others, while needing each others unique gifts in our own lives to thrive.
