Description

Newt Gingrich and William R. Forstchen turn their attention to the Revolutionary War. Their story follows three men with very different roles in history: General George Washington, Thomas Paine, and Jonathan Van Dorn, a private in Washington's army. After five months of defeat, morale is dangerously low. While Washington prepares his weary troops for a sneak attack on Trenton. Thomas Paine is in Philadelphia, overseeing the printing of his newest pamphlet, The Crisis. And Jonathan Van Dorn, the youngest son of a merchant from Trenton, is about to bring the war to his own doorstep. In the heat of battle, Jonathan must decide between staying loyal to the cause and sparing his brother who has joined up with the British.
