About the author
Lars D.H. Hedbor
25 books59 followersWhat made the American Colonists turn their back on their King, and fight for independence? How were they different from us–and how were their hopes and fears familiar to our own hearts?
These are the sorts of questions that I think are important to ask in examining the American Revolution, and in the pages of my novels, I suggest some possible answers.
I am an amateur historian, linguist, cuckoo clock restorer, brewer, fiddler, astronomer and baker. Professionally, I am a technologist, marketer, writer and father of six.
My love of history drives me to share the excitement of understanding the events of long ago, and how those events touch us still today.

Hedbor's latest novel, The Will, is set in Philadelphia beginning in 1776. For me what is unique about this novel is that it is told from the perspective of a young man overhearing stories from the past about a man who he believes is his father. Issac Melcher is the Barracks-Master General for Pennsylvania, so the reader will gain an understanding of civilian life in Philadelphia as the British are trying to occupy the city, as well as information about the army. This is a must for those who would like to learn more about life in America and the struggles of all during the war.
