About Under the Wing of the Storm: Young American Adventures, Book 3 (Unabridged)

The Youngs have returned in the third year of the American Revolutionary War living amongst General Washington’s army, lending vital support to freedom’s cause. The road will be rough, or rather, muddy, as Washington and the rest of America struggle to hold on as the king’s patience runs out. It’s 1777 and King George has tired of our “little rebellion”. He’s commanded his finest generals to finish the war at once. General John Burgoyne is marching south out of Canada, and General Howe marches towards our capital Philadelphia from New York. General Washington and his fellow patriots are trapped in between. With the American dream dangling by a thread, it’s the perfect time for my younger brothers, Abraham and David, to pick a fight with a porcupine. "Only the Good Lord knows how we’re going to get out of this mess. Henry says the year ahead will be a test like none other we’ve yet to face. After the winter we’ve endured, I pray he is wrong. For better or worse, we’ll make our stand as boldly as we’re able and trust the Lord to look after the rest." (Mercy Young, 14 years old) In Under the Wing of the Storm, you’ll learn about the battle of Saratoga, the daring acts of General Benedict Arnold, the British capture of Philadelphia, and freedom’s miraculous stand during the most difficult year of the American Revolutionary War.
