If you liked The Revenant and Forrest Gump then you’ll love Fanshaw!
The story of a young Englishman who became the rst United States Geologist, founded the country’s rst railroad which eventually grew into the New York Central, conducted the exploration that opened the territory of Minnesota, traveled through the slave states and wrote a book about the despicable nature of the trade that he had to leave the country to publish. In his later years he engineered an agreement between England and the United States over the border between the U.S. and Canada and still found time to rescue the King of France from the mob. Love, tragedy, and adventure followed him through a remarkable life.
