I grew up in rural Pennsylvania near Gettysburg. After a career manufacturing and writing a bestselling nonfiction book, Safety WALK Safety TALK, I decided to follow my dream of writing about the settling of the American West. I enjoy reading about adventurers and explorers, traveling internationally, riding a recumbent tandem bike, and spending time with my grandchildren. As a teenager, I worked on a fruit farm in Pennsylvania. It is here I met Redfield, a Crow Indian who lived a simple life but had a profound effect on the way I saw the world and people around me. I spent a summer in Yellowstone National Park in the late 1970's giving guided tours on Yellowstone Lake. When I was not working, my days were spent exploring all corners of that magnificent land, often in the backcountry. My love for our nation’s first national park is rooted in that wonderful experience. I've included some photos from my time in the park in the Author Updates. My debut novel, Burning Ground, is part fiction, part historical, and part autobiographical. Spanning decades, the Frontier Traveler Series brings to life pivotal moments of Western history through the eyes of a man torn between two centuries. In 1971, grief-stricken and adrift, Graham Davidson is thrust back a century into the wilds of Yellowstone. Amidst breathtaking landscapes and rising tensions, he finds purpose with an early expedition—and love in a Crow woman named Makawee. Choosing the past over his own time, Graham carves out a life on the frontier. But peace is fleeting. Drawn into the ranks of the U.S. Cavalry as a scout, he witnesses the chaos and bloodshed of the Battle of the Little Bighorn—and must choose where his loyalty lies. As conflict consumes the West, he joins the Nez Perce on their desperate flight to freedom and watches as a way of life is torn apart. After devastating personal loss, Graham searches for meaning with Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show and is pulled into the final sparks of resistance at Wounded Knee.
