The Wilderness Road: A Romance of St. Clair's Defeat and Wayne's Victory is a historical fiction novel written by Joseph A. Altsheler. The story is set in the late 18th century and follows the adventures of Henry Ware, a young man who travels through the wilderness of Kentucky and Ohio during the American Revolution. The novel begins with Henry and his friends, Paul Cotter and Shif'less Sol Hyde, living in a small settlement in Kentucky. They soon become embroiled in the conflict between the Native American tribes and the American colonists. Henry joins the army and fights in the Battle of St. Clair's Defeat, a devastating loss for the American forces. Despite the setback, Henry and his friends continue to fight for their country and eventually join General Mad Anthony Wayne's army. They participate in the Battle of Fallen Timbers, a decisive victory for the Americans that ends the Native American resistance in the region. Along the way, Henry falls in love with Helen Harley, a young woman who is also caught up in the conflict. The novel explores their romance and the challenges they face as they try to survive in a dangerous and uncertain time. The Wilderness Road is a thrilling adventure story that also provides a vivid portrayal of the early years of the American Republic. It is a tale of bravery, perseverance, and love set against the backdrop of a pivotal moment in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
