I like this novel takes the reader to a crucial part of American history. I, however, found it unthinkable that the settlers suffered any injustice. Me thinks its the settlers who metete injustice to the indeginous population. Thanks for the review. Thanks for the review.

Hi @Dheera Kalota, I just read your comments on the official review of "Blood Summer 1862" and I also found this stories combination of history and fiction to be very interesting. I wonder if Thomas Jefferson would really have had a conversation with John Jacob Astor regarding supporting Astor's fur trader proposal and the purchase of Indian Land to prevent the senseless slaughter of settlers and their families. @Mrlefty0706
