    About this ebook

    Legend Upon the Cane is the tale of the courageous chief of the Natchitoches Indians and the French explorer, Louis de St. Denis. Travel along with Chief Natchitos on this legendary and historic adventure as he leads his tribe from the banks of the Sabine River to the lush area of the Cane River, where he meets the French explorers, led by Louis de St. Denis. Then, travel with them to the bayous of South Louisiana and Lake Pontchartrain where his tribe must flee to escape a terrible famine. It is a foreign land where they must learn to adapt, but also must learn to live alongside an unfamiliar tribe, the Acolapissa. Soon, they will face the ultimate challenge in an epic battle to win their freedom and bravely escape to their homeland. Upon their historic return in 1714 with the French settlers, they establish the oldest settlement of the Louisiana Purchase, Natchitoches.

    Author

    Keith R. Rees

    I am an author of fiction, historical fiction and poetry. I have written five novels including one that would be considered a novella. I also have two collections of poetry. I have just released a historical fiction romance novel set on the island of Maui. I started out writing poetry over 20 years ago, but started centering more on novels for over 8 years now. I love to travel when I can and in writing I try to create endearing characters that ordinary, everyday people can relate to. I love to tell stories and put my imagination to work. Writing is a wonderful pastime and I am happy to share these stories with as many people as possible. Happy reading! :)
