This was a good read. It gives a vivid picture of the lives of ordinary American citizens prior to the opening shots of the American Revolution, and does not romanticize the events of that fateful day. The divisions amongst the patriots as to the proper course of action, the uncertainty of what may happen, and the awful truth of the price of liberty come shining through in this novel. It shows when principles require action to back them up, life can change forever as a consequence.
