A Kidnapping in Kentucky 1776 - Paperback

by Elizabeth Raum (Author), Laurie A. Conley

Courage. Imagination. Unbeatable Determination.

The Kentucky frontier was a beautiful place, but it was also a dangerous one. Jemima Boone and John Gass often heard wolves howling, bears growling, and snakes slithering through the tall grasses. There was no store, no school, no doctor at Fort Boonesborough. The settlers were on their own to deal with whatever threats arose. On a sunny summer day in July 1776, the crisis they faced was a kidnapping. . . .

Based on a true event.
