Great frontier story told in good old-fashioned way!

In 1790, the Kentucky frontier was fierce and untamed. Indians populated the wilderness - feared and hated by the white man. Brutal raids threatened a newfound freedom, forging a spirit of perseverance for our young nation. It is this spirit which author Jim Wollard has so brilliantly captured in this powerful new epic since his prior novel "Thunder in the Valley". Attacked by Indians in the dead of night, Blake and Blaine Tyler lost their parents to the savage Shawnee. Their sister was spared - and taken by the raiders. Outnumbered and fighting fearsome odds, they blazed a trail westward, hoping against hope that they would find her alive, if they found her at all. Two worlds collided on that open frontier, Indian and white, locked in a desperate struggle for survival and freedom. And in the midst of the fight, a spirit was born, as wild and free as the land itself. This is the story of America!
