Published by the Mount Vernon Ladies Association, the book has simple and clear language with beautiful photographs and pictures.
The life of a colonial boy parallels the historical events of the 1700's. The book begins with the typical day in the life of this boy who lives near Williamsburg, Virginia on a farm. He takes care of the family flour mill while his father goes to fight in the French and Indian War with George Washington. When the boy grows up, marries and has a family of his own, he is fighting in the American Revolution. Later he will serve at the Constitutional Convention. Of all of our books, this has been the definitive book of details of the whys surrounding the events of our country's search for liberty.
