Pioneer, patriot, politician... John Harris Jr. was a true visionary in eighteenth-century Pennsylvania-during a time in history when taking a risk meant putting your life on the line. He proudly took bold steps in supporting monumental changes that now define history. His legacy is strong in Pennsylvania, but his story has never been told, until now. Visionary Road to the Capital sheds light on Harris' journey-filled with both tragedies and triumphs-during life on the frontier. While his name doesn't stand out amongst other influencers during that era, like Washington or Jefferson, Harris' life is woven into the fabric of America's birth. He funded and supported the cause for freedom and took brave measures to secure the land that would eventually become Pennsylvania's capital city, Harrisburg.

Autorenporträt
Historian, author, and reenactor, David Biser, wears many hats, but the one he enjoys most began over 15 years ago-when he became a first-person interpreter for John Harris Jr. David was so impressed by Harris' incredible life, he decided his story must be told-and dedicated hundreds of hours to research. If you're in Pennsylvania, you may spot David as a rifleman reenacting the Revolutionary War or as an extra in many historical documentaries.When he's not dressed in colonial attire, you'll find David serving as a pastor at CrossPoint Church in his hometown of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. On a day off, he enjoys spending time with his beautiful wife and taking a ride on his horse, Dexter, while imagining days on the frontier when horseback was the only means of transportation.
