A historical coming of age tale, this adventure story teaches young people about the daily struggles for survival that those early Americans endured and helps them to appreciate the way things were in 1809. Throughout the trip, the Perkins family’s survival depends upon young E. Z.’s learning which of his fears are real and which are imaginary. Be forewarned. In some series, each book ends with a satisfactory conclusion and merely sets the stage for the next volume. In other series, the reader is left hanging by a thread over a cliff. “Fighting Devil’s Backbone” is the latter. Book 2 is E. Z. and the Chikasha Warrior.
