The narrative knits thirty years of historical and family research
into the seams of a contemporary journey of discovery. Ichabod is
missing. The author sets out to solve the mystery of his
disappearance two hundred years ago. Unconventional methods unearth
his diary. A farmer, medical practitioner, shoemaker, and religious
liberal, Ichabod Foster survived two wars with Great Britain,
participated in the birth of Vermont, and migrated to the Holland
Purchase lands of western New York when he was seventy-one years
old. In a cramped, snow-covered log cabin beside the dead bodies of
his son, brother, and sister-in-law, Ichabod took his last breath
January 1, 1813. In her quest to find Ichabod's grave, Van Camp
digs beneath primary source materials to uncover universal themes
of death, birth, religion, survival, and war. People she bumps into
while traveling through Rhode Island, Vermont, and New York
reinforce her sixth-sense encounters.
