Summary: Awesome
Comment: The Bloody Country by James Lincoln Collier and Christopher Collier is a great book! It is very informative at first but as the story unfolds it becomes a great story. This story takes place during the Revolutionary War and is about the Buck Family who moves into the Wyoming Valley. The Pennsylvania government says the land rigthfully belongs to someone else. The goverment forms allainces with the Native Americans and come to kick out the Buck family and everyone else in the area. The Indians and government battle with the people in the area and Ben Buck's uncle and mom get scalped. Later they get kicked out of the valley after they rebuild their mill (it was destroyed by a flood). After they get kicked out of the valley they figure out that the land was not given to anyone and come back to reclaim they're land.
The author of this book was very good and very descriptive. He almost made me feel like I was actually there. I would reccomend this book to anyone who wants to learn about the Revolutionary War and what it felt like to live in that time period.

Summary: The Bloody Country
Comment: I give this book 4 stars because it was pretty good. The book bagan little slow, yet it had a lot of detail. The book was about a boy named Ben Buck and his family in early Pennsylvania, during the Revolutionary War. Talking about the way times were made the book move very slowly. Toward the middle of the book it picked up and the plot thickened. I could not say this book was bad, because I myself like this time period. the book was never hard to read no hard words and no extreme topics that you must read twice to get the piont. I have a little trouble reading and it isn't a hobby of mine but this book was "OK." So, I recomend that you posibly consider reading this book, but if you don't like this period, reconsider the offer and read something else.

Summary: The Bloody Countrty
Comment: The Bloody County is a magnificent book. Sometimes it gets boring by telling to much informantion at one time, but then becomes good by picking up the story really quick.The story is based on a young boy named Ben Buck and his family that move from Connecticut to a placed called the Wyoming River Valley. The government one day comes and tell them that they have to move because another family rightfully owns this land, but the family won't leave. The next week Indians that work for the government come and scalp Ben's mother and his sister's husband. This scares the whole family and they split up. This book has its ups and downs but in the end comes out to be a pretty good book. The best part of the book is when the river floods, pulling a family and their canoe into the raging stream and then the Buck family saves them. I recommend this book to a person this book to a person that likes to read about early settlement in the U.S.
