Book Review: 'The Pioneers' by David McCullough

7/16/2019

 
"I am almost finished with 'The Pioneers' by David McCullough. It’s an enjoyable, very readable account of the Ohio Company’s opening of Ohio at Marietta a good 8 years before the first settlers in Warren County Ohio. It is an easy read and should be required in all Ohio Schools. I wish he would write one about our settlement of Ohio. We have just as interesting stories to tell."

​-Vicky Van Harlingen, Director of WCHS
