the long version

"In 1790 John Johnston, a cultivated young Irishman, came to the far corner of the Northwest Territory to make his fortune intending to spend only a year. Instead, he married Ozhah-guscoday-wayquay, or The Woman of the Glade, daughter of the Ojibway chief Waub-ojeeg, and settled on St. Mary's River. Together they founded a family that was loved, respected, and famous throughout the region for honesty, fairness, and hospitality. Their home was the center of culture for the area and every visiting traveler, Native American or white. The Invasion chronicles a time when one culture violently supplanted another even as it depicts a family that blends two cultures together."--BOOK JACKET.
