Western Hooves of Thunder publication - now released!
Zig Misiak, author, and Scott Paterson, illustrator, combine their talents and historical re-enacting experiences to give the reader wonderful visuals and an exciting story. The story is based on historical fact and locations: two adolescents, a Mohawk boy and his friend Catherine, find themselves in the middle of a war. Hearing stories of the American Revolution they learn why their families migrated north across the lakes and how devastating war was and still could be. Joseph Brant, General Brock, Tecumseh, John Brant, the Prophet, and Wm. Caldwell are all featured. The book is intended to support history curriculum in schools but is a wonderful easy-to-read resource for all.
