Join us for Coffee with Friends, 7 pm Tuesday, April 14, with author William Heath: William Wells and the Struggle for the Old Northwest, the definitive biography of a conflicted hero. Born to Anglo-American parents on the Appalachian frontier, adopted into Miami Indians tribe at age thirteen, Wells was vilified by some historians for his divided loyalties, but worthy of comparison with famous frontiersmen like Daniel Boone and Davy Crockett. Room 2B, Monroe County Public Library

“The truth-is-stranger-than-fiction remarkable life of William Wells has found an ideal biographer in novelist-turned-historian William Heath. This deeply researched reconstruction of Wells’ side-shifting odyssey brilliantly illuminates the confusing choices and challenges that confronted Indians and pioneers as they struggled against one another and with themselves on the early American frontier.” —Stephen Aron, author of How the West Was Lost: The Transformation of Kentucky from Daniel Boone to Henry Clay
