An historical novel, The
Wampum Keeper is set in 1651, in the Couchiching,
Kawartha, and Niagara regions of present-day Ontario and New York State.
The novel chronicles the fortunes of the wampum keeper and his family
when an Iroquois League army invades their town.
The
Wampum Keeper eBook comes in four file formats, downloaded
to your computer immediately upon payment:
All four file formats contain the Author's Introduction
that you see here on The Wampum Keeper
Web Site, a Table of Contents, and the novel's text: the short Prologue
and Chapters 1 - 28.
The .pdf, .lit, and .kml files also contain the 'cover'
illustration you see here, and a link to The
Wampum Keeper Web Site's Explore the World page of annotated links
to museum sites, historical monument sites, and to other sites dealing
with other subjects explored in the novel. Unfortunately, hyperlinks and
image files are not allowed in .txt files.

Online Payments:
What Happens When you Click on A File?
When you click on the wampumkeeper
file you wish to purchase, you are automatically transferred to
a ClickBank payment window. You make
your payment to ClickBank and have your credit card validated at their
window -- I never see your credit card information -- then you automatically
return to The Wampum Keeper Web site
to download your file.
ClickBank describes their online credit card security
system in this way: "For sophisticated international fraud control,
ClickBank uses ccScan (sm) to screen all purchases. For maximum card security,
all orders are sent directly to the banking network for immediate authorization.
We do not store any credit card numbers."
