Title: Fiction laced with nonfiction
Product review: I first read this book in 1964 when I was 14. It was the first book I ever read without being forced to and it captured my imagination. I was unable to put the book down and read late into the night. Throughout the day, I couldn't wait to get back to this book and find out what was to become of Jim Cheston.As a result of this book, I voraciously read everything and anything of that era and place that I could get my hands on. I learned that this book is right on when it comes to historical accuracy, other that the fictional characters surrounding the story.This is above a teenagers book but simplistic for most adults. Perhaps "Light reading" would be the term? If you have an interest in stories about the Kentucky Frontier, with Daniel Boone, Simon Kenton, et al, you'll love this book.
