Reviews

[Edward Trujillo]

This novel captures the mood of the times during the French and Indian wars just before the Revolution. It shows life on the frontier then. The protagonist, Ben, is an admirable character. -- not so some of the historical figures woven into the story. I learned much about Rogers -- his career, character. A good book re this period to read is "conquered into Liberty."
Ben comee fleshes out the events of that time.

Really a Very Good Read...

Yes, it's a short story, but it really is a time machine. It gives the reader a first hand look at the life of a common man living a common life caught up in memorable times. Well, at least that's how I found it...
