The latest in the "Young Patriots" series of young adult novels, George Rogers Clark: Boy Of The Northwest Frontier by Katharine E. Wilie is a dramatic historical narrative of the childhood of George Rogers Clark, who would grow up to be a Revolutionary War general and famous explorer, as well as an inspiration for his younger brother William who would one day lead the Lewis & Clark expedition.

I purchased this book to accompany my classroom 'play-away' device....Great for 4th graders studying (Indiana)history...
This was a great read aloud for our 7 yr old 2nd grade son. We loved learning about George Rogers Clark and all the adventures he had growing up. Highly recommended as a good quality biography!
It was a good story to read to my boys! We loved that he followed his passion and how his life changed America.
