HISTORICAL NOVELS

The Longest Walk "The Longest Walk helps readers understand the many grievances borne by Native Americans that led to terrorist attacks on frontier settlers and that eventually resulted in the French and Indian War. Through the adventures of young Matt Scull and the Indian John Combush, history comes alive. The reader participates in the Walking Purchase and discovers that Thomas Penn, son and heir of William Penn, was less than honest in his dealing with the Lenape. This book would be an excellent supplement in history classrooms that would help students (and us all) to discover meaning in history."

Rain: The Reconstruction Years Rain's days as scout for Union General George B. McClellan come to an end along with the bloody Civil War. He clutches the paper that declares him a free man and sets off in the direction of the wind to contemplate where to live his new life. He keeps his options open, but decides to linger in the South. He finds Tim Mulhullen, the friend who packed him in a boxcar and chugged him to freedom, serving as a benevolent pastor at an orphanage run by cruel opportunists—the carpetbaggers.

Rain calls in favors. General McClellan ensures freedom of the children and reestablishment of free commerce. Rain helps retrieve a train engine from the bottom of a muddy ravine and uses it to smuggle contraband goods of browbeaten Southerners under the noses of corrupt Union officials. His powerful physical stature will not allow him to go unnoticed, and he attracts the attention of none other than John Henry, himself.
