You can read about the exciting life of John Richardson, the original author of Wacousta, in a book by David Beasley called The Canadian Don Quixote: The Life and Works of Major John Richardson, Canada's First Novelist. Beasley's biography was published by Davus Publishing.

Some scenes in Wacousta are set in Fort Michilimackinac.  You can learn more about Fort Michilimackinac on the website of Mackinac State Historical Parks at http://www.mackinacparks.com.

The Windsor Community Museum at 254 Pitt Street West in Windsor, Ontario has a permanent exhibition called “By the River’s Edge: A History of Windsor.” This exhibit gives an excellent overview of the early history of Detroit as well as Windsor. John Richardson, the original author of Wacousta, has said that his inspiration for the novel came from stories his grandparents told him when he was a boy visiting their home in Sandwich, an early name for Windsor. Richardson’s grandparents had lived in Detroit when they were young; their house in Sandwich overlooked the Detroit River.

Fort Malden National Historic Site of Canada will be of interest to fans of Wacousta. This site is located in Amherstburg, Ontario, just a few kilometres down river from Windsor.  John Richardson (1796-1852) grew up in Amherstburg. http://www.pc.gc.ca/lhn-nhs/on/malden/index_e.asp

Fort George National Historic Site of Canada also will be of interest to fans
of Wacousta. This site is located in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, a few kilometres from the popular tourist destination, Niagara Falls. John Richardson was probably born in Fort George.
