by Gail Huntley (Author)
Gail Huntley fuses the two themes of perseverance and passion to continue the saga of the settlers and their children trying to survive in a harsh but beautiful environment in the Adirondack Mountains of northern New York. She explores relationships of real people, such as Mitchel Sabattis, Mary Ann Keller, and Wright Rule. Revenge, disease, love, and forgiveness seep through the hearts of these settlers and their children. Follow the Dodds and Scott families, originally from Scotland, as they put down roots and journey back and forth between the rugged Adirondacks Mountains and the rolling St. Lawrence County plains. Meet the shunned and the shunners, the robbers and the robbed, and the people of the woods struggling to survive another winter in this wild wilderness called the Adirondacks. Meet Ebeneezer Bowen, the hermit, Joel Plumley, Mary Ann Keller, Mitchel Sabattis, and Uncle Wright, the horse thief. Join the skilled woodsmen and women of the Adirondacks and the farmers who settled on the St Lawrence.
