Bootmaker to the Nation: The Story of the American Revolution, Volume I, Rebellion (Bootmaker to the Nation Trilogy Book 1)

BOOTMAKER TO THE NATION, an ebook trilogy, dramatizes the Revolutionary War so vibrantly that people who "hate history" will find themselves totally immersed in the saga of Americaâ‚¬s creation. Fifty years after the Declaration of Independence, two white-haired patriots take turns telling their epic story, Benjamin from the battlefields, Genevieve from Washingtonâ‚¬s headquarters.
Volume I takes the reader on a turbulent ride through the three rebellious years leading up to the Declaration of Independence.
Benjamin York, an apprentice shoemaker in London, is impressed into the British Navy in 1774 and forced to sail to Boston. He becomes a â‚¬Å“topmanâ‚¬Â, working high in the rigging.
Genevieve Byrnes, a farm girl from Massachusetts, grows up hearing about the turmoil in nearby Boston. She becomes, like her father, an expert rider, galloping along the back roads of her explosive colony.
In Boston, Benjamin is forced to become a redcoat. He marches to Lexington and Concord, fighting the opening skirmishes on the British side. Captured by the Americans, he meets Genevieve and her brother Henry, a Minuteman. Out of rage for what the British have done to him, Benjamin joins the American Army.
Follow Benjamin and Genevieve as their lives intertwine during the tumultuous opening of the eight-year war.
