Hello there, please allow me to introduce you to For Generations to Come, an epic historical account of the 500-year saga that took the Knauss family from 1546 Hessian Germany to America and the generations that followed them in the United States to the present day. Real-life experiences and historical facts are uniquely blended. The storyline is like a Tom Sawyer/Nancy Drew book. It has action and tall tales for the boys and, at the same time, romance and mystery for the girls. The novel is written like a Hitchcock film or an old 1930s murder mystery...you think you know who "has done it" until the cliff-hanger endings that are throughout the storyline.

The first three chapters reveal the path taken by emigrants from Europe to the New World to becoming Americans. Chapters four through 11 focus on families during and after the American Civil War. The ending and the author's life story are in chapters 12 through 14.

This American story also tells a parallel Native American story. Early European settlers were driven out of their native homeland by invaders from other countries. Then they did the same thing to the Native Americans who thought the settlers were invaders and squatters in their homeland.

Thank you for your time looking at my work.
