Praise
“A sobering characterization of not only a historical battle, but war itself.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Mann’s re-creation of the Battle of Minisink and its aftermath straightforwardly introduces readers to events and figures seldom visited in children’s books…. Mann’s narrative is unique in that it sheds light on this part of Native American history and, in particular, the Iroquois Confederacy’s alliance with the British…. the rich, exhaustive research is evident within the writing as well as in the biographical information provided at book’s end…. Mann has created a springboard for immersion in a sadly overlooked yet important part of our history. A worthy purchase for its thought-provoking portrayal of a military skirmish seldom explored in children’s literature.” —School Library Journal
“The compact structure, compelling flashbacks, and low page count will draw readers who don’t generally gravitate toward historical fiction, and the epilogue, bibliography, and thumbnail bios of the real life players will please dedicated history fans.’ —The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
“Allows readers a glimpse into a tiny rural community’s life under British rule and provides a nuanced view of the tensions between settlers and natives caught in the cross fire of military strategy…. a remarkable meditation on the horror and loss that war brings to a community.”—Booklist
