Highly accurate account of the Indian Wars in the Ohio Valley beginning in 1764 at the end of the French & Indian War through 1786, the last battle fought by the Virginia Militia. In order to familiarize the reader with the period, the author has inserted special sections concerning the natural beauty of the area as it was in the mid seventeen hundreds, Indian life, customs & government, pioneer living in the Ohio country, early religious movements, etc. The book contains many biographical sketches of major participants in the Indian Wars including Kenton, Boone, Chief Little Turtle, John Johnson, General Logan, the Girty Brothers & others. One will find much of the "history" previously written by authors debunked in order to maintain accuracy. It is the belief of the author that in order for readers to retain what they read, each chapter should be an independent story. This is one uniqueness the book contains. Also available is SIMON KENTON: THE GREAT FRONTIERSMAN ($18.00). Much of the information was gleaned from the Lyman C. Draper manuscripts which are little-known facts of the old frontier. Coming soon is THE LONG GREEN VALLEY, a companion book to THE LAND BEYOND THE MOUNTAINS. This 350 page narrative covers the period from 1787-1843, ending when the last Indians left Ohio.

In her fourth novel of the Kentucky frontier, Giles combines her fascination for the past with her gift for storytelling. Had it not been for the loyalty of men like Giles's fictional hero, Major Cassius Cartwright, General James Wilkinson's 1783 attempt to create a Spanish empire in the West might have succeeded. Interwoven with the Spanish Conspiracy are tales of struggles with Indians, of the birth of a Green River Valley town, and of the two women Cass loves: Rachel, a gentle Quaker, and Tattie, a fiery waif he rescues from Philadelphia slums. Like Giles's earlier historical novels, The Land Beyond the Mountains is an engaging story of adventure and romance. First published in 1958, this reprint gives Giles fans another lively piece of Kentucky's frontier history. Janice Holt Giles (1905-1979), author of nineteen books, lived and wrote near Knifley, Kentucky, for thirty-four years. Her biography is told in Janice Holt Giles: A Writer's Life.

During the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the North West and Hudson�s Bay companies extended their operations beyond the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Ocean. There they encountered a mild and forgiving climate and abundant natural resources and, with the aid of Native traders, branched out into farming, fishing, logging, and mining. Following its merger with the North West Company in 1821, the Hudson�s Bay Company set up its headquarters at Fort Vancouver on the lower Columbia River. From there, the company dominated much of the non-Native economy, sending out goods to markets in Hawaii, Sitka, and San Francisco. Trading Beyond the Mountains looks at the years of exploration between 1793 and 1843 leading to the commercial development of the Pacific coast and the Cordilleran interior of western North America. Mackie examines the first stages of economic diversification in this fur trade region and its transformation into a dynamic and distinctive regional economy. He also documents the Hudson�s Bay Company�s employment of Native slaves and labourers in the North West coast region.
