This bundle includes both Redcoats-ish and Redcoats-ish 2, collecting comic strips from Jeff Martin’s War of 1812 stories, featuring the misadventures of John and George, two not so fearless men of the Canadian militia. Heeding the call to defend Canada against the invading American army, John and George are now doing their best to be heroes, whilst also working hard to avoid battles, marching, danger or anything else that involves effort.
More mad-cap adventures this time as our hapless heroes stumble into Tecumseh, Laura Secord, the burning of the White House and the destruction of Toronto, I mean York. Niigaanwewidam Sinclair guest writes a story about their indigenous counterparts in a twist of perspective too. This a good fun read for anyone looking for War of 1812 adventures that make you chuckle.
Jeff has written a comprehensive teaching guide for social studies teachers looking to use Redcoats-ish in their classroom. Download the pdf for free by clicking this link.
“Redcoats-ish blends two things I love most, humour and history. I’m learning while I’m laughing and it keeps me turning the pages.”
Chris Peterson, Grindhouse: Doors Open At Midnight
