The Sullivan Road

On the ragged edge of a new nation, every boundary is drawn in blood and loyalty. War comes to the frontier. Garrick M. Harding's The Sullivan Road is a richly atmospheric historical fiction novel rooted in 18th century Pennsylvania, a colonial America setting where the Revolutionary War reaches remote cabins and contested valleys. As a revolutionary war era novel, it blends the pace of a classic adventure novel with the depth of a serious American historical novel, evoking colonial frontier life in all its danger and uncertainty, from shifting allegiances and land conflicts and loyalty to the fragile communities holding the line between wilderness and settlement. For readers of American frontier fiction and Pennsylvania history fiction, it offers a vivid, humane vision of how ordinary lives are reshaped when great events press against the edge of the known world. Beyond its compelling narrative, Harding's work offers a rare literary window onto Revolutionary War-era Pennsylvania, illuminating how earlier generations imagined the making of the American frontier and the fragile birth of a nation. Ideal both for historical fiction fans seeking a thought-provoking book club historical read and for collectors of carefully chosen heritage titles, it bridges adventure, memory and regional history with quiet power. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
