The Native American tribes have been pushed back to the Ohio River Valley, now they would make their final stand...At the dawn of a new nation, American settlers find themselves in conflict with the remaining Indian tribes of the Northwest Territory. It is an era of great heroism and greater loss.In the tradition of The Last of the Mohicans, the First Frontier Series is a stunningly realistic adventure saga set on America's earliest battleground.BOOK 4The Iroquois Confederacy had been shattered. Pioneers poured into the unspoiled Ohio River Valley-in defiance of Indian treaties. Among them was David Watley, son of a frontier family, who built a trading post on the Ohio. But when Miami warriors crushed an under-trained American army, Watley and his adventurers were forced to abandon their homes. Together with his father Thad and grandfather Big Oak, Watley joins up with General Mad Anthony Wayne in the war to claim the Northwest Territory at a battle called Fallen Timbers, along a river running with blood.
