Honed by his recent experiences at Bunker Hill and Great Bridge, Drums of War hero Andrew Hendricks returns in the fourth installment of Peter Doyle's young-adult series. Home again, Andrew soon uncovers an insidious Tory plot in his hometown of Williamsburg, Virginia. This time duty calls the young patriot to sail for South Carolina to deliver another important message. By sea and by land, the English are planning to take the capital city of Charleston, one of the most important ports in America, as a base for a surprise, full-scale invasion of the South. The clock ticks for Andrew and his woodsman mentor Matthew Anderson to warn Governor Rutledge and his forces before Admiral Peter Parker and General Henry Clinton of the English military overwhelm the Patriots' small, incomplete fort on Sullivan's Island in Charleston Harbor. Peter Doyle's masterful storytelling once more recounts the culture, geography, historic figures, and warfare in defense of Colonial America's liberty. The Drums of War series interweaves the compelling factual story of America's War for Independence with the fictional tales of brave young men and women from two patriotic families. Their participation in the unfolding of history teaches them about honor and liberty, while young love blossoms in the background. Schools no longer teach America's early history in any meaningful way--particularly its Christian faith, character, or heart for Godly justice and liberty. America languishes as its true story languishes. The Drums of War series is an inspiring collection of historical novels to restore that history to a new generation of American youth and young adults (of all ages) in an enjoyable, entertaining, and dramatic way.
