Abijah and the American Revolution - Paperback
Description
by Kenneth Wayne Virgil (Author)
Sixteen-year-old Abijah Virgil has always been content with his provincial life, concerning himself with little beyond the farmwork that keeps his family afloat. But when the first shots of the American Revolution are fired, he leaves the quiet fields of colonial New York to join the Continental Army. Abijah survives numerous battles only to be captured during a mission to destroy enemy supplies. As many of his fellow prisoners succumb to disease and harsh winters, he clings to the hope that he-and his fledgling country-will one day be free.
Evoking an idealism that survives the horror of war, Abijah and the American Revolution highlights the everyday struggles and quiet acts of courage that are often overshadowed by grand historical narratives.
