In simple, entertaining story form, students are introduced to the leaders, the causes, and the challenges of the Revolutionary War.

Students will learn the providential acts of God that made it possible for colonial America to fight and win a war against Great Britain, the mightiest military power on earth. Get the truth from non-revisionist sources in this historical adventure that children will remember for years to come!
