Bunker Hill (Book 2) Drums of War Series

About the Title: In April of 1775, the British Government ordered its armies to disarm the citizen military forces in the North American Colonies. British troops invaded the Massachusetts countryside, fired on the Lexington militiamen and began to burn patriot supplies. But militia companies from surrounding counties and colonies rushed to repel the invaders. As Britain amassed armies and ships from around its empire and hired thirty thousand German soldiers to subdue the colonies, General Howe ordered a surprise attack on the American militia besieging troops in Boston.

 

Andrew Hendricks and Nathan Edwards found themselves caught up in the American move to fortify Bunker Hill and forestall the British offensive. The War for American Independence had begun!

 

Thus continues an exciting series of books set in the turbulent days of the American Colonies' war for Independence. Fourteen-year-old Andrew Hendricks and his friend Nathan grow to manhood during the desperate struggle to preserve the thirteen colonies' social, political and religious liberties. The boys and their sisters meet great leaders of the cause and learn the principles for which our forefathers took up arms and pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor.
