Schools no longer teach America's early history in any meaningful way particularly its Christian faith, character, or heart for godly justice and liberty. America languishes as its true story languishes. What we need is a series of inspiring historical novels to restore that history to a new generation of American youth and young adults (of all ages) in an enjoyable, entertaining, and dramatic way and here it is!
We are pleased to announce new editions of Peter Reese Doyle's popular Drums of War series of books with new titles coming. Drums of War interweaves the compelling factual story of America's War for Independence with the exciting fictional tale of brave young men and women from two patriotic families. Their participation in the unfolding of history teaches them about honor and liberty, while young love blossoms in the background.
Here we present the first book in the series: Independence takes place in 1775 Williamsburg, Virginia. The royal governor sends British troops to steal gunpowder from the town's public magazine. With the colonists alerted, the story climaxes as Patrick Henry leads Patriot militiamen toward a dramatic showdown with the British governor. Once liberty has been challenged, is war inevitable? Experience these events through the lives of two families and their adolescent children.
