Description

Shawnee Shadows is a breathtaking, historical fiction adventure set in the untamed western Pennsylvania wilderness of 1764. The story follows an inexperienced young farmer and a boy tracking a war party of Shawnee Indians who attacked and captured their loved ones. The author?s painstaking research into the lives of pioneers, and of the native people, plus the use of accurate place names, transports the reader to the wilds of colonial Pennsylvania. The pioneers? heart-rending adventure drives non-stop to a dramatic ending, with a real life view of the conflict from both sides.Meet ?Petey? and Tatoma from Shawnee Shadows;Creeping from gun port to gun port, James Peter Randolph, Petey, made a hasty surveillance of the world outside. The sun was still high in the sky, but the forest seemed dark and foreboding. There was no sign of human life, and he could only speculate what was happening. Perhaps the men were still pinned down or, worse, dead. Perhaps the Indians went off to help their companions in that skirmish. Perhaps the Indians thought the men had come back to the house. Whatever happened, it didn?t add up. If the men were dead, the Indians would have burned the house. If the men were alive, they would have found a way to come back by now, or at least there would have been more firing. Maybe the men came back and were following the trail of the braves and their captives. Petey felt very alone and very hungry.Tatoma gazed off in the direction of the Tuscarora mountain ridge, outlined darkly against the sky. His mother, who was of the Susquehannas, had told him stories of this country and how the tribe had been forced to migrate west as the white people began to build cabins and the game became too sparse for food and the fur trade. In some vague way, Tatoma felt that white people should be made to suffer for their encroachments and made to respect the Indians in their new lands to the west.
