Welcome to Richard Puz's Books


I am pleased to bring you family essays and novels about the pioneers who built America. Real pioneers traveled the prairies and the big American rivers to the frontier. These folks were self-reliant in the face of unknown dangers. Their travels were remarkable journeys of courage. They are my heroes. I hope they become yours.

What if everything you owned and loved was on log rafts traveling 2,000 miles on the big American rivers to the frontier?

This book magically weaves together a warmhearted story with historical events as pioneers carve out new lives on the prairie.

The book’s characters are ordinary people --farmers-- who had self-doubts and imperfections. Their extraordinary qualities of self-reliance, faith, and courage set them apart. At the same time, Native Americans were forced to move everything to a strange new land simply called Indian Territory while losing their way of life. This novel takes these two strong strands of history and weaves them into personal stories of love, violence, and frontier life.

Here's what readers are saying . . .

"In the time of tremendous American growth . . and exploration, they led the way. . Now, a new book from Outskirts Press author Richard Puz brings readers along for the ride as a group of pioneers carve out new lives for themselves on the 1830s American prairie, revealing in the process the roots of a nation’s greatness--and its darkest shame." (Seneca News-Dispatch)

"A riviting story set against a tragic time in American history, "The Ohioans; Six Bulls" is highly recommended. 'The Ohioans: Six Bulls' is highly recommended for community historical fiction collections." (The Midwest Book Review)"

I loved the book. Let me know when the next one in the Six Bulls series is available. (Amazon reviewer)

Really enjoyed reading "The Ohioans." (Amazon Reviewer)


"Just my kind of book. I cared about each of the characters. By the way when I finished the book, I lent it to a friend who was on vacation with us and we didn’t hear from him for days." (Amazon Reviewer).

"Not only do his characters come to life, but you feel their emotions as he weaves into the story the difficulties they face. Can't wait for "The Carolinians." (B&N Reviewer)

"This book is easy to read and hard to put down. The book tells of happiness and hardships, death, prejudices, compassion, love, and forgiveness. All is woven into the wonderful adventure of these families moving from Ohio into the wilderness area called the “Six Bulls.” (SP)

"The author's attention to detail brings you face-to-face with the families and some of the fascinating true-live predicaments they encounter. Surprises, tragedy, and emotion await you. . . " (Amazon Reviewer)
