Rich in historical detail and told from multiple perspectives, the series brings early American history to life, inviting readers to experience the people, cultures, and events that helped lay the foundations of early America while exploring timeless themes of perseverance, compassion, resilience, and hope.

Reviews:

“I'm a homeschool teacher and lover of history. Your book Thrown to the Wind, from the series, A Country for Castoffs, was included in the Charlotte Mason Alveary curriculum. I'm reading it aloud to my 6 and 3rd grader. I just couldn't put it down and bought the next two. Excited to see book 4 out soon! It's been something I look forward to each night at the end of a long day to check in with these characters. Thank you for all you do. Stories give life and I'm grateful for the ones you've written!” - Carolyn (Elizabeth City, North Carolina)
