When the United Irishmen marched into Ballymena in June 1798, conflict was inevitable. The divided loyalties of the people were symbolised by two imposing figures - the local schoolmaster Robert Davison, fanatical in his opposition to the Rebellion, and the rebel leader, Thomas Archer, equally fanatical in his opposition to British rule. In this dramatic story of the Rebellion and its turbulent aftermath, Joshua and his friend Sammy become involved with the rebel leader and his followers, now on the run from the forces of the Crown ... 'One of the most commendable aspects of this most commendable book is the author's ability to tread the political minefield of his subject matter.' G.V. WHELAN, The Irish Times 'A very balanced book which creates no defined heroes, but tells a story which should be read by every youngster. Terry Myler's illustrations lend just the right atmosphere.' MARY ARRIGAN, The Sunday Tribune 'A well paced tale of strong characters and fluctuating fortunes.' ROBERT DUNBAR, The Irish Times
