ABOUT THE BOOK
Many Sparrows
by Lori Benton (Goodreads Author)
Many Sparrows
When settler Clare Inglesby is widowed on a mountain crossing and her young son, Jacob, captured by Shawnees, she'll do everything in her power to get him back, including cross the Ohio River and march straight into the presence of her enemies deep in Indian country. Frontiersman and adopted Shawnee, Jeremiah Ring, promises to guide Clare through the wilderness and help her recover Jacob.
Once they reach the Shawnees and discover Jeremiah's own Shawnee sister, Rain Crow, has taken
custody of Jacob--renaming him Many Sparrows--keeping his promise becomes far more complicated, the consequences more wrenching, than Jeremiah could have foreseen.

LORI'S TRAVELS
Oh my!!! The best Lori Benton book yet!!! I'm going to put this on in my list as my fave books.
Lori has put her heart and soul into this beautiful novel. I love how she takes her time to do research for this book and brings it to life.
In the battle scene I could actually picture the scene happening.
I hate it that that Clare has went thru so much and I learned some things along with her.
I think this story is very emotional, and definitely very powerful.
I could hear the Indian drums a drumming and I very vividly could see the dancers
All in all I just loved this book
I received this book for free an no compensations were received. All words expressed are my own
