“ MY THOUGHTS: Wind of the Spirit is the first book of the American Patriot Series that I’ve read and I enjoyed the story very much. Even though it was obvious that I was missing much of the beginning, this book read very well on its own. Of course, now I have to read the first two books because I’m hooked.

Elizabeth Howard and Jonathan Carleton are intriguing characters. With multifaceted personalities, they give the story an emotional depth that is sometimes missing in Historical Fiction.
J. M. Hochstetler acquaints us with the American Revolution in a way that brings this part of Colonial history to life. And if that were not drama enough, she presents through the eyes of Jonathan Carleton, as the adopted Shawnee War Chief White Eagle, the struggle of America’s native tribes to retain their own lands and way of life.
This story mixes history, adventure and romance into one powerful read. I'm sure no one who loves Historical Fiction will be disappointed with Wind of the Spirit. I'm looking forward to reading the first two books and eagerly await the fourth book in this series.
My Favorite Snippets:
~ “The man you seek is not here,” he said, speaking now in English, his voice harsh. With a jerky movement of his head, he nodded toward the eastern edge of the forest. “He died far away a long time ago.”
~ Was it possible that Jonathan Carleton still existed somewhere in the soul of this enigmatic warrior? She prayed it was so.”
