Drawing on the same courage and bravery she’s seen in her patriot father, Patrick Henry, young Annie Henry is on a secret mission to help bring freedom to America.
Sometimes it's hard to be the daughter of a famous patriot. War is coming - the Revolutionary War - and it forces Annie's father to be away from their plantation for long stretches of time.
Annie desperately wants to help him in the cause for liberty, but there are things to keep her eye on at home before she can solve the problems of the colonies. A fire nearly destroys her family's crops, her seriously ill mother takes a turn for the worse, and a fall from a horse leaves Annie with a broken arm.
Still, she is determined to do her part to help her father bring freedom to the land. With his famous words, "Give me liberty or give me death!", ringing in her ears, Annie finally gets an idea....
This is the first book of Adventures in the American Revolution giving young people an exciting look at life during America's War for Independence. Author Susan Olasky is the wife of Marvin Olasky and is the book review editor and a senior writer for World Magazine.
