The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent condition, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
A rousing and action-packed story of four lovable teenagers in the Colony of New Jersey just before the outbreak of the American Revolution. Historically true and dramatically modernized, it recounts the story of John and Mercy Pierson, their Tory neighbor, Patty, and Kevin, a visitor from across the Atlantic. The swift-moving chapters have all that an adventure story could demand: a strange theft, a mysterious mill, secret drills, quilting parties, a shipwreck, a chase through a swamp, a kidnapping plot, a tea party, and the first reactions to the life-changing news of Lexington and Bunker Hill.
With twenty-four appealing illustrations by June Driscoll.
