Description

Over the years, there have been many fine books written about the major aspects and key figures of the American Revolution (see a list of recommended titles at the back of this book). However, in this brief volume, we will explore a series of little-known stories that are sure to be of additional interest to the general public. These stories are quite revealing of the dramatic and often unexpected experiences that such a long and perilous war produced. Here you will find various powerful lessons, some inspiring, others cautionary, about such poignant human experiences as heroism, treason, courage, suffering, endurance, spying, faith, camaraderie, hope, and deeply felt aspirations for liberty. You will find further helpful travel information for potential future journeys related to America's founding. This book is not intended to be an academic treatise and therefore does not include formal footnotes; rather, it has been written for simple enjoyment and easy readability by the general public on this joyous occasion of America's 250th commemoration of the American Revolution. Enjoy!
