Description:
When Revolutionary War Patriot Lamberton Clark is shot by the British, he enlists his twin 14-year-old sons to get a secret letter to General George Washington. Upon discovering that their father is a spy for the Culper Spy Ring, John and Ambrose set off from Connecticut to New Jersey to find Washington and meet up with danger along the way.
Review Quotes: I enjoyed Patriots, Redcoats, and Spies immensely. What a great read! I've been thinking about it all week. I am biased toward the subject and cause, but I suspect that even boys and girls with no such loyalties will find it compelling and enjoyable--and that it will cause them to want to know more about the American Revolution. This deserves to be widely read, for it will do our country and the history of its origins the important service of sparking curiosity about the War for Independence and the people who sacrificed so much to secure America's autonomy as a nation.--Robert McDonald, Associate Professor, US Military Academy
