Independence (Book 1) Drums of War Series

About the Title: The sleeping citizens of Williamsburg, Virginia, are shocked awake by the shouts of the night watchman and the firing of his pistol. "They're stealing our powder! The British are stealing our powder!"

 

Soon the whole town learns that Lord Dunmore, Governor of Virginia, sent British marines to steal gunpowder from the town's public magazine, gunpowder stored there for the defense of the Virginia Colony!

 

Thus begins 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.
