Walter Havighurst story, "A Sword for George Rogers Clark," in the October 1962 issue of American Heritage.

"In pioneer Kentucky the year 1777, George Rogers Clark, aged twenty-four, commanded the defenses - three stations left—Harrodstown, Boonesborough, and Logan’s Station. Harrodstown was the oldest built in 1775—and it had the largest enclosure and the heaviest log palisade. It was the county seat (Kentucky being a county of Virginia) and the military capital. One of its jutting blockhouses was the frontier Pentagon."


Since 1949, American Heritage has been the leading magazine of American history and culture. As historian Arthur Schlesinger, Jr. wrote, "American Heritage is everything a magazine of popular history should be -- elegant, lively, informative, entertaining, and intelligent."

mixed media on board pieces by the legendary cartoonist has an approximate overall size of 22" x 30".
