The Northwest Passage
Henry Nary
Robert Rogers was a brash young frontiersman from New Hampshire's wilderness whose courage and guile became the stuff of legend. He was also captivated by a hearsay lore and possessed by a daring and audacious dream. Upon meeting two young women, Hannah Dunbright and Elizabeth Browne, Rogers life wouldn't be the same. Then, events will unfold that forces one too betray him and the other seeking revenge. The consequences of this tempest love triangle puts Rogers life and dream in peril at the hands of Captain Andre-Duryantaye, a cunning and deadly French-Canadian - Courier de Bois. Spanning both the 'Seven Year's War' and American Revolution, Roger believes the theory of and unfound fable. A water route through a vast North American Continent for a shorter trade-route to the distant Indies and beyond. The lore of 'The Northwest Passage' lay between myth and imagination and is the undercurrent of the story long before 'Lewis and Clark. And his dream for an expedition might've succeeded for he's never failed. But then a revolution and unfortunate choices destroy everything as he makes plans in London. Now his grandest feats are faint memories as he falls from grace. But, Hannah vows too never let his legacy die.
