The Conquest Series is:

American history through Indian eyes.

A historically accurate account of the Delaware (Lenni Lenape) Indians, as told by their own storytellers.

Maps and illustrations that give form and feature to the characters and events.

A thought-provoking search for truth.

A story of the timeless struggle between good and evil, right and wrong.

The Conquest Series is a saga of the Delaware Indians. This novel in four volumes recounts the events that led to the loss of the Delaware homeland, a homeland given them by the Great Spirit hundreds of years before the Europeans arrived.

American Indian Painter, George Catlin (1796-1782), once wrote of the Delaware Indians: “Amongst this tribe there are some renowned chiefs, whose lives, if correctly written, would be matter of the most extraordinary kind for the reading world.” The Conquest Series is the story of the lives of some of those renowned Delaware chiefs.

In The Conquest Series Lenape heroes come alive as storytellers and orators pass their history on to their own people. Their record of events sounds strikingly different than the biased tales so often told in the white man’s history books. The Conquest Series uses the true life story of Glikkikan, a famous Lenape war chief who almost took Fort Pitt, to tell about the conquest of the Lenape homeland, and about his own personal conquest as he sought another homeland for himself and for his people. The story of the Conquest is presented in four volumes.

Glikkikan in Peace Valley

The setting for Volume I and Volume II is located in Peace Valley Park near Dublin, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Here on a hill above Neshaminy Creek, Owechela, an eighty year old chief, passes on an oral history of the Delaware Indians to his grandson, Glikkikan. But Owechela’s story is more than an oral history. Owechela aims to instill in Glikkikan a love for his homeland and to inspire Glikkikan that he might pass the courageous Spirit of Tamenend on to the next generation.

“The way you bring history alive is amazing. After reading your novel, I understand how hard it must have been for the Indians to stay on the right side, and, at the same time, survive the rapid changes and technology brought by the Europeans.”
