In 1803, young brothers Daniel and Will remain on their newly settled homestead in the Ohio wilderness while Pa returns East for the rest of the family. Left alone for an unexpectedly long ten months, the brothers meet a helpful Lenape Indian, survive a blizzard, and face a bear attack. Based on an actual incident, this is a solid historical novel.
