Goodreads asked Tony L. Turnbow:

What are you currently working on?

Tony L. Turnbow I am creating a version of Hardened to Hickory for young readers. It will focus on Andrew Jackson's training of young Tennessee Volunteers to become soldiers and to survive the Mississippi River and Natchez Trace. Most of soldiers were teenagers. Some were as young as twelve, and the expedition was their first time away from home. Jackson promised to be a father to them, and he had to decide whether to abandon them or face a firing squad.
