Loved these unfamiliar stories of the American Revolution. Such brave men and women doing what they could for the cause of liberty. Inspiring.

I dislike fictionalized non-fiction. But I was curious to see who made it to the list. I learned a lot... but I didn't take it as seriously (and certainly wasn't as engrossed) as I am with masters like McCullough and Goodwin.

I also felt like it told 18th century stories with a 21st century viewpoint--meaning that a 16-year-old in that time wasn't the child we see them as today.
