The Loxleys and the War of 1812: 2nd Edition - Hardcover

"The Loxleys and the War of 1812 is not the first comic to blend history, education and adventure, but it is by far the best that I have ever encountered." --Dr Chris Murray, Lecturer in Comics Studies, University of Dundee"THE LOXLEYS AND THE WAR OF 1812 is an example of graphic novel storytelling at its best. The creative team of Alan Grant, Claude St. Aubin, Lovern Kindzierski, and Todd Klein has produced a masterpiece--a sensitive, enthralling, and historically accurate graphic novel of a Canadian family swept up in the tragedy that is war. Their compelling saga is enhanced by a crisply written summary of the War of 1812 by historian Mark Zuehlke. As a story, and as a tale of an overlooked, but pivotal conflict, THE LOXLEYS AND THE WAR OF 1812 is not to be missed." --Dwight Jon Zimmerman, award-winning author of TECUMSEH: SHOOTING STAR OF THE SHAWNEE and SAGA OF THE SIOUX, member of the member of the Military Writers Society of America

"The Loxleys is a graphic novel on par with anything I've ever watched on the History Channel. This is history told through the guise of story, and it reminded me much of Eric Shanower and his Eisner Award winning BRONZE AGE. 8.9/10" --ML Ramirez, ExpertComics.com

"'Comprehensive comic about the war goes beyond a simplistic narrative and is often jaw-droppingly beautiful to behold." --Suzette Chan, Sequential Tart

"Alan Grant has crafted a truly engaging and emotional look at the War of 1812 through a family that lived on the Canadian side of Niagara....The Loxleys And The War Of 1812 is an excellent story of family and conflict; very engaging and appealing to all ages. Renegade has done a wonderful job of packaging this as an educational resource and hopefully librarians and educators will take advantage." --Comic Book Daily
