A Bucket Full of Courage by Geoff Baggett
Betsy Johnson was only eight years old when she traveled with her family to reach the rugged, untamed Kentucky frontier. The Johnson family found a home at a place called Bryan Station, a remote fort in the dense Kentucky forest. She worked with her family to plant crops, make clothing, and care for her younger brothers and sisters. It was a hard life, but a good life. Betsy loved her home in Kentucky. Every day was an adventure. Then, in the summer of 1782, the American Revolutionary War found its way to this isolated fort. Over five hundred Indians, led by British officers, surrounded Bryan Station and prepared to attack the settlers there. A Bucket Full of Courage tells about the incredible spirit and bravery of this little girl and the other heroes of Bryan Station who stood against the attack.
Geoff Baggett is a small town pastor in rural Kentucky. Though his formal education and degrees are in the fields of chemistry, biology, and Christian theology, his hobbies and obsessions (according to his wife) are genealogy and Revolutionary War history. He is an active member of the Sons of the American Revolution and has discovered over twenty Patriot ancestors in his family tree from the states of Virginia, North and South Carolina, and Georgia. Geoff is an avid living historian, appearing regularly in period uniform in classrooms, reenactments, and other Revolutionary War commemorative events throughout the southeastern United States. He lives on a small piece of land in rural Trigg County, Kentucky, with his amazing wife, Kim, a daughter and grandson, and a yard full of fruit trees and perpetually hungry chickens and goats.
