long summary:
HANNAH'S JOURNEY is a masterfully written account of immigration from the Black Forest area of Germany to the New World by the author's ancestor, Hannah Conrad.
Hannah and her husband, Ulrick, survived a perilous ocean voyage only to become consumed by the French and Indian wars.
The story of the captivity of Hannah and her children by Shawnee Chief Killbuck was passed down through generations till author Ralph Coonrod decided to research the plight of Hannah and her family.
The detail is historically accurate and Ralph's visual writing style draws the reader into every facet of Hannah's unimaginable hardship and her will to survive.
As you read HANNAH"S JOURNEY, you slowly realize that the horrible circumstances that Hannah found herself in at the hands of the Shawnee was not unique. Many Americans have ancestors who went through similar tortures, but since most of those accounts have been lost, we take those hardships for granted.
After reading Ralph's account of his ancestor's captivity, you will have a new appreciation for the determination and sacrifice that it took to build America and persevere in the face of incredible tragedy.
