Summary "On the Trail of Pontiac; Or, The Pioneer Boys of the Ohio" by Edward Stratemeyer is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative focuses on the adventures of young cousins Dave and Henry Morris as they navigate the challenges and conflicts during the tumultuous years following the French and Indian War in the wilderness of Ohio. The storyline revolves around their experiences, including interactions with Indigenous peoples, their families' efforts to establish peace, and the looming threat posed by the renowned chief Pontiac and his followers. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Dave and Henry as they embark on a hunting trip in the snowy woods, engaging in conversation about the consequences of the war and the resultant scarcity of game. Their reflections provide insight into the region's history and their familial ties, along with mentions of pivotal figures like Sam Barringford and the fears surrounding potential Indian uprisings. This opening sets the stage for their journey, foreshadowing encounters that will test their resilience, reveal historical tensions, and challenge the aspirations of a frontier family seeking stability amid uncertainty.
