Harry Moore was the pen name of authors Stephen Angus Douglas Cox and Cecil Burleigh.
On January 4, 1901, the explosive action-adventure book series “The Liberty Boys of ‘76” first hit newsstands. This thrilling series didn’t just entertain young readers, it also taught them about real historic events and figures from the American Revolutionary War of 1776.
In the pages of “The Liberty Boys of ‘76,” Cox and Burleigh transported kids back in time to witness historic battles, meet legendary patriot heroes like George Washington and Paul Revere, and experience the fight for independence from the British Empire alongside the brave, young Captain Dick Slater.
We hope a new generation of young Americans can learn the importance of patriotism, freedom, and American history, just like their great-grandparents did when they were little.
