Book Description
It’s pay on delivery or dead on arrival… While driving two lovelorn mail-order brides from Denver, Obadiah Gump is attacked by five rifle-wielding Apache braves. Fortunately for the three travelers, John Slocum happens to be passing by, on his way to deliver some horses. After the braves are gone, Slocum learns that the wagoner and his precious cargo are headed for the same town: Deadfall. When the Apaches return in the night, Slocum is ready for them. Obadiah recognizes one of their attackers—a man who works for Mordecai Wisner, the same man who hired Slocum to transport the horses. And when Obadiah mentions that Wisner’s responsible for a number of graves outside of Deadfall, Slocum knows he better watch his back when he delivers his cargo—and hope he doesn’t join ranks with the dead…

The Secrets of North Brother Island
Author: John Kenny Crane
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1462844707
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 437
Book Description
The Secrets of North Brother Island is about the unsolved disaster in 1904 of the burning and sinking of the pleasure boat General Slocum, the worst nonmilitary disaster in American history before September 11, 2001. It is often called the forgotten disaster because of the sinking of the Titanic in 1912 and the outbreak of World War I in 1914. However, nearly 1100 perished on the Slocum, half of them children, in what was to have been a church picnic. The captain ran it aground on North Brother Island despite the fact that the fi re broke out beside Rikers Island, equipped with a full fi re-fi ghting brigade. Crane relates it to the Civil War forty years earlier and revenge against General Slocum by one man he caused to be imprisoned in Andersonville. These pyromaniacs are also related to the record-setting fi res between 1900 and 1911, such as The Triangle Shirtwaist fi re.
