    Synopsis

    Danny and Life on Bluff Point: The Blizzard of '95 is the second in a series of historical novels for children. In this installment it is January of 1895 and ten-year old Danny and his family are enjoying outdoor activities of ice skating and sledding. Farm work does not stop for cold weather and Danny does his expected chores even though his heavy winter clothes make hard work more difficult for him. Miss Spaulding, the school teacher, has come to live with the family for the winter.

    While returning home from a trip to his Grandpa's blacksmith shop, he and his cousin Jay are caught in the start of a three-day blizzard and have a miserable ride home. Their return trip was delayed by a detour to do some forbidden exploring. For his failure to heed Grandpa Scott's warnings Danny is assigned extra work. He and his family are rewarded for his efforts in several ways.

    Danny learns the importance of following family instructions and to not judge people until you know them.

    08/04/2006: It is a gladsome, simple introduction to another way of looking at history. The series is taken from the author?s grandfather?s journals and is packed with adventures and details about the everyday lives of settlers of Yates County, New York State in the 1890s, complete with charming primitive drawings and lessons about citizenship and American Indian Life.
