“ …a good overview of the history of the Midwest in the late 1700s. This is an often-overlooked history but was actually very important to the growth of the United States. Really good book.”- verified reader

War Fiction
In the 18th century North America, the American-Indian war was swirling viciously through the continent. Whitacre’s setting was taken advantage of in his story The Spirit Traveler, which centers around a young Virginia frontiersman who travels through the Ohio countryside as a scout for the U.S. Army during the American-Indian Wars. Whitacre thrills the casual reader and history buff alike by accentuating events and people from history in his story of adventure and romance. Going further than just the creation of an incredible story, the author also brings to light a story of history that is often overlooked—a story not to be missed.
