Even though he mistakes a skunk for a squirrel and gets too close to a porcupine for comfort, he is looked to as the leader of the other dogs at Red Fox Hill. Zadoc is the narrator of all the stories. There are five rescue dogs living with the Lady at Red Fox Hill: Zadoc, an Australian Terrier, Zhilo, a Golden Retriever, Zeeva and Tattoo both Silky Terriers, and Zoé, a Bichon. They enjoy fun and adventure together while learning important values and life lessons. A fierce predator can also be a protector, the smallest creatures can have the biggest hearts, and sticking together through difficult times can bring comfort and strengthen friendships. Join Zadoc and his companions as they go through the seasons at Red Fox Hill, making new friends and learning new things (sometimes the hard way) and, above all, doing it together.

“The authors of the bestselling Halsey’s Typhoon do a fine job recounting one brutal, small-unit action during the Korean War’s darkest moment.” —Publishers Weekly November 1950, the Korean Peninsula. After General MacArthur ignores Mao’s warnings and pushes his UN forces deeper into North Korea, his 10,000 First Division Marines find themselves surrounded and hopelessly outnumbered by 100,000 Chinese soldiers near the Chosin Reservoir. Their only chance for survival is to fight their way south through the Toktong Pass, a narrow gorge that will need to be held open at all costs. The mission is handed to Captain William Barber and the 234 Marines of Fox Company, a courageous but undermanned unit of the First Marines. Barber and his men climb seven miles of frozen terrain to a rocky promontory overlooking the pass, where they will endure four days and five nights of nearly continuous Chinese attempts to take Fox Hill. Amid the relentless violence, three-quarters of Fox’s Marines are killed, wounded, or captured. Just when it looks like they will be overrun, Lt. Colonel Raymond Davis, a fearless Marine officer who is fighting south from Chosin, volunteers to lead a daring mission that will seek to cut a hole in the Chinese lines and relieve the men of Fox. This is a fast-paced and gripping account of heroism in the face of impossible odds.

Jim Sarles AKA Jim Red Fox, was raised in the Catskill Mountains in New York. On December 19, 2004, he suffered a debilitating stroke. One positive result of this traumatic experience was a new ability to think very creatively and to put these thoughts on paper. He began writing about his childhood experiences in Livingston Manor. He always knew that his blood line went back to the Lakota Sioux. In 2009, he became a member of the Native American Cultural Center where he is a member of the board. He is also a member of the Thunder Bear Drum Circle. He was given the title of Story Teller and the Indian name, Red Fox in 2010. He began writing short stories of Native American Indians, reading to school children and various Powwows. This is his first book but more will follow.
