A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A fast-paced, meticulously researched tale of the birth of American liberty, 'The List' is based on an untold mystery of the Revolutionary War. Baker brings to vivid life the occupied city of 1777 Philadelphia with a memorable cast of historical characters--including the British General Howe, Joseph Galloway, the unsung American Captain Alan McLane--as well as imaginary ones you will never forget such as the divided family of Archibald Browne, Whittaker Yates, Major Oliver Crippen and the beloved 'Grackle.' While the misery and dangers of war bring turmoil into the lives of the loyalists and patriots alike, the destiny of a nation hangs on the tip of a quill pen, one anxiously poised above a piece of parchment. As Volume 2 in the 'Bookends of Liberty' series, 'The List' is an excellent resource for any interested in America's founding principles. (Volume 1 in the series is, 'Swords of Heaven,' an intriguing novel that explores the development of liberty during the era of Magna Carta. Suitable for readers ten to adult.
