Beskrivelse
In 1986, La Fargeville was a sleepy little town northwest of Watertown, N.Y. bordering on Lake Ontario, only a stone's throw from the Canadian border. Summertime was slow and easy in La Fargeville. Bugs were chirping, birds were singing, and hawks were making lazy circles in the deep blue sky. School was getting out in a few days, and everyone was either going on vacation or hanging out with their friends.
The Wickersham twins, Bailey and Bobby, were looking forward to doing some wild exploring of the old Jensen farm and woods behind their Grandpa's place. Their tagalong younger sister, Patti was excited too.
In past visits to their Grandpa's, they had heard stories about the family and old farm's history. The whole area had a history not only colorful but played an important part in the overall American story, from the French and Indian War, the Revolutionary War, and through the Civil War.
It was a focal point for several skirmishes in the French and Indian War and a major victory for the Americans during the Revolutionary War.
