Isaac Mccoy and the American Indians
By Carol Spurlock Layman

White men call Isaac McCoy a maverick missionary. Presidents, generals, his own board tried to derail him. Indians addressed him as "Friend and Brother," except the Indians who sought to kill him.  But nobody could stop Isaac McCoy.

This glimpse into the dynamics between missionaries and Indians illuminates a nugget of American history seldom examined. The author's twenty years of research reveal surprising events re-created on a broad canvas. Everyone named in the epic cast actually lived. The book is intended for the general audience, age 12 and up.

"Layman provides much more realism than found in many historical fiction novels."

"After finishing Layman's Isaac McCoy adventures, the reader will feel entertained as well as educated."

"This book is richly detailed. He had such an exciting life, it is a wonder so few have heard of him."
