The Cabin on Foudy Creek: A Novel

George Clidienst
iUniverse (2006)
ISBN 9780595387823
Reviewed by William E. Cooper for Reader Views (1/07)


Although I am not a frequent reader of fiction novels, I found myself reading Mr. Clidienst’s book and not being able to put it down.  This is a book about courage, about doing what is right, about standing tall in the face of indecision and fear.  It is an extremely well written book, both easy to read, yet profound in its content.  It is about a young man forced to make an extremely difficult choice, getting varying input and advice from people who are close.  It is about good people in the midst of chaos and disagreement, as is the country.  Yet we read about a man who consistently does what’s right, even when confronted with real fear.

“The Cabin on Foudy Creek” should be included in must-reads for high school and college students.  It should be in every library and bookstore in America.  It should be read by everyone.  I strongly recommend it and endorse it to the level that if Mr. Clidienst writes another book, I’ll be in line to buy it.
