This book vividly details an account of a child's life in colonial Georgia. The journal recounts the life of a young Scottish boy named Johnny "Little Jack" McLeod in the weeks surrounding the decisive battle for English/Spanish control over Georgia. Johnny lived in Frederica Town, the fortified settlement & southern military headquarters for British North America. The British victory at Bloody Marsh on St. Simons Island ended Spain's claims to Georgian lands. Frederica Town is brought to life through vibrant accounts of the boy's observations of the soldiers, craftsmen & families living in this bustling 18th century military town. This journal sparks a child's imagination & appreciation of Georgia's rich heritage. The 63 page bound paperback book is written to a mid-elementary grade reader level. It is handsomely illustrated by Critt Graham. Author Joyce Blackburn is a noted biographer of James Oglethorpe, Georgia's founder, & other prize winning historical novels for young readers. The book retails for $4.25, plus shipping & handling & is available from the Fort Frederica Association, Rt. #9, Box 286-C, St. Simons Island, GA 31522. (912) 638-3639.
