Endorsements

“The Clark twins return to make tough decisions, test their courage, and risk their lives for the American Revolution. If they falter, West Point—the key to the continent—could be lost to the British.

Our modern-day era of too much partisanship and too little patriotism has a lot to learn from the father-son Skead team, who inspire us with a gripping, action-packed story of young patriots who put their country first.”

— Robert M. S. McDonald, Professor of History, U.S. Military Academy, West Point, New York

“This is a great story about the history of our country. It is written in such a way that children/young adults will enjoy the story for itself, and as a bonus, will be learning about the history of our country. When I read historical fiction books it always inspires me to look back and research what it is that I’m reading about. This story will inspire the reader to further their knowledge of the time period and help them to understand the historical significance of events that occurred and how they relate to current events.”

— Doc Bayne, NJ American Revolution historian
