Review of Blood Summer 1862

[Janet Kimetto]

From what I gather, this book delves into American history during a crucial period. The story is built around the Dakota War of 1862 and emphasizes the lasting impact of the war on settlers and Native Americans. Congrats on BOTD!

Hi @ Eva Nyaburi, I just read your comments on the official review of "Blood Summer 1862" and I was disappointed that you did not write comments that would encourage other members to read this book. While this story is a combination of history and fiction there is so much more in this story including Thomas Jefferson discussing a proposal to support John Jacob Astor's fur trader proposal, the battle in Ohio that killed Captain Rogers and 45 of his men by a traitor that aligned with the British and Native Americans to attack American soldiers. @Mrlefty0706

Today's book of the day is an historical fiction about the American civil war. It is a book that teaches empathy and compassion. I wish to congratulate the author on being the book of the day.

Your review of Blood Summer 1862 by Robert Hauser is both insightful and compelling, highlighting the book's rich historical context and its exploration of complex themes. As a prospective reader, I’m drawn to the way you describe the intricate weaving of real historical events with fictional narratives, especially against such a significant backdrop of American history.
