Summary

When 13-year-old Ben Ward left school to work with his Pa in a logging camp, a winter of peeling potatoes wasn't the adventure he had in mind. Taking up where Blackwater Ben left off, Dead Man's Rapids returns to Minnesota's north woods in the late nineteenth century, and with warmth, humor, and attention to historical detail engages readers young and old.
