Description:

During the massacre of the English garrison at Fort Michilimackinac in 1763, an Ojibwa chief helps a French resident conceal Alexander Henry (1739-1824), an English fur-trader.* Mary Hartwell Catherwood (1847 -1902) was born in Luray, Ohio and as an adult lived in several cities in the Midwest. She developed a signature style of incorporating Midwestern culture, dialect, and local color into her texts. Although most of her novels and stories are set in Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois, some are also based along the American border with French Canada and on colonial Mackinac Island.
