Fort In The Wilderness

Description

Written for the younger reader, this book dramatizes the Oriskany-Fort Stanwix campaign, which saw St. Leger repelled and prevented the British from sweeping down the Mohawk Valley during the American Revolution. “Someone told us (this) was a children’s book. They were wrong. It will fascinate children but many adults will be unable to put it down. For this is a story of true adventure, based on thrilling Mowhawk Valley history. Until we read (it) we had not realized the many exciting episodes of the Oriskany-Fort Stanwix campaign.”
