Amidst the forested hills of North Carolina, a girl, daughter of a long hunter, dreamed of a land beyond the Appalachians-a land called Caintuck.

Produktbeschreibung
Amidst the forested hills of North Carolina, a girl, daughter of a long hunter, dreamed of a land beyond the Appalachians-a land called Caintuck. She envisioned its mountains that rolled into large meadows cut by rock-bottomed streams and fast-flowing rivers-meadows covered with thick grass where buffalo, elk, deer, and turkeys grazed. She knew Caintuck as a land filled with the riches of nature and scarcely inhabited- the hunting ground of many Native American tribes. Lying beyond the Donelson Line separating the colonies from the Indian inhabited wilderness, Caintuck drew men to its beauty as well as its bounty. Having heard the stories from her father and uncle, among others who had dared to cross the mountains into Caintuck, and despite the many dangers, Jemima hankered - yearned - longed to cross those mountains and live in that promised land of milk and honey. Caintuck Lies Within My Soul tells the story of Jemima Boone, daughter to Kentucky pioneer Daniel Boone.

Autorenporträt
C. M. Huddleston believes in enjoying your work and fulfilling your dreams. So, she became an Army wife, mother, elementary school teacher, archaeologist, and historic preservation consultant-she loved everyone of those roles. After doing all that, Connie remembered her dream, and in 2006, she finished and published her first book! Now she has thirteen published volumes, all dealing with our nation's past. While five are written for children, her other works are histories for adults on a variety of subjects. She has won awards for her books from Literary Classics, Kindle Book Awards, and Purple Dragonfly Book Awards. Connie writes in an upstairs office in a log cabin in Kentucky, where she lives with her husband Charlie and their Australian Shepherd Katie. Many days you'll find her gazing out the window and seeing with her mind's eye all of the events of the past that once occurred and planning how to make them into a story, just for you.
