My name is Mercy Young, I’m 12 years old, and up until a couple days ago, my life has been pretty uneventful. But it’s 1775, and I live in Lexington, which apparently God Almighty has deemed fit to be the birthplace of a revolution!
My papa was one of the men from town who went to confront the Red Coats (British Soldiers), who marched onto our town green and demanded that we submit ourselves to their rule. There was a terrible battle and papa was taken captive.
My mama passed away a few years ago, and with no one else to look after us, my brothers and I have decided that the only sensible thing to do is set off to Boston and fetch papa back. We don’t know what lies ahead, and this awful war has only just begun, but if I was captured and alone, I’d want to know someone was coming for me.
Even as the cannons drum in the distance, I feel a mixture of fear and excitement at the adventure that awaits us. Slipping out into the cool April night, I can feel it–there’s no turning back now.
Historically accurate fiction is one of the best ways to teach students about our amazing history and we’re proud to join authors such as Joe Giorello (Great Battles for Boys), Lauren Tarshis (I Survived), and Esther Forbes (Johnny Tremain) in this important endeavor.
From gritty battles to the daily struggle for survival and comical adventures in the woods, your family will live it all along with the Young siblings!
