Description

In The Tall Pines is a gripping adventure tale that tells the story of the original settlement of the upper Connecticut River valley through a fictional battle between actual historical figures from the Native American Abenaki tribe and the invading English settlers. The book is set in the primeval forest of New Hampshire, and old growth forest that has all but disappeared from the region due to two and a half centuries of Western habitation. Discover what life was like for the original settlers of western New England and learn more about the Native American Abenaki tribe whose way of life kept western New England a pristine primeval forest through several thousand years. Can we see primeval forests, salmon migrating in the rivers, or Native American settlements in New Hampshire or Vermont today? No, they're all gone. The only way to envision what it was like is through tales of life under the canopy of undisturbed nature such as In The Tall Pines.
