The author did a fantastic job taking actual history and placing it into a novel form.  This period of our history is full of violent times and the story shows how one family overcame building a future in the wilderness.  The author also places us into the mind set of the indians who were forced from this land.  The cast of characters were easy to follow and the author gave us considerable background so we fully understood each character.I always enjoy the books from Chandler.  His ability to use historical fact and place it into the daily lives of those who lived it is extremely enjoyable and often time also educational.I would urge others who like to read about our colonial history to take time to read this novel.  Enjoy!
