Showing results for "Moose" in Historical Fiction

I’ve often wondered at the meaning lurking behind the reported final words—moose, Indian—of Henry David Thoreau. For some reason, I’ve always imagined a somewhat dark, untold tale at their root. MOOSE. INDIAN. is just such a reimagining of Thoreau’s first trip to the Maine Woods—as he recalls the uncomfortably gruesome truth on his deathbed.

Jess Thornton, private eye, is a young man from the small city of La Crosse, Wisconsin, who nevertheless manages to find himself in strange and often supernatural situations as he tries to solve crimes. From traveling through time to fighting witches, he could only survive with the help of his preternaturally gifted warrior friend, Alexander Blackdeer. The two of them together, in this box set of four tales, manage to meet Elvis, King Arthur, and even Nathan Hixon of early La Crosse historic fame. He attacks crime where he finds it, with Alexander the mighty warrior beside him.
