A War of Love and Loyalty
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
"The British are coming!" In this case, it is Breed's Hill. The redcoats are about attack a small group of men from various New England militias. Among the men are Peter Treegate, his father, John Treegate, and Peter's foster father, Maclaren of Spey. But, there is more than one battle that is about to be fought. Against the colorful backdrop of the American Revolution, Peter Treegate is caught between his love and loyalty for his father and foster father. He wants to please both, but in the process only alienates them. What should he do? As the drama unfolds, Wibberley introduces several key moments and issues to the cause for the War for American Independence. Just like Peter's conflict between his father and foster father, all is not clear. Where does he fit in? Where is his loyalty? Fast paced, Wibberley takes Peter from one adventure or misadventure to another, including capture, imprisonment, and escape. Not just a tale of the American Revolution, Peter Treegate's War touches on the internal conflict of the human heart of showing love, kindness, and compassion to others even in the midst of evil.
