Ordering The Loxleys and the War of 1812 graphic novel.

Alexander Finbow - Wednesday, February 08, 2012

With production on the graphic novel entering the final few days, it is time to spread the word on how to get hold of this timely and lovingly created graphic novel. 

The story follows the Loxleys, a Canadian family living in the Niagara peninsula as they're torn apart by the American invasion of Canada in 1812, and the subsequent war that raged across both countries as British troops, Canadian militia, and Native American warriors sought to thwart the expansionist plans of the American government. We're with the family through key historical events as they deal with the realities of war on their doorstep, the personal losses, setbacks, and victories tied to the conflict.



This historically accurate story written by Alan Grant and drawn by Claude St. Aubin will be a 176 page hardback book, with the comic strip story running to 101 pages, and a 64 page summary of the war written by Mark Zuehlke.

The ISBN is 978-0-9868200-0-7 and it will retail for $19.99.

Comic Book customers should pre-order the graphic novel from their favourite comic book stores using the same code once it is available, until then the ISBN is the best way to let them find out about the book.
