From the Publisher:
Seymour Reit re-creates the true story of Will Knox, a nineteen-year-old boy who undertook the daring and dangerous task of transporting 183 cannons from New York's Fort Ticonderoga to Boston--in the dead of winter--to help George Washington win an important battle. |
Annotation:
A fictionalized account of a true event from the Revolutionary War. During the winter 1775-76, George Washington needed guns and ammunition to help reclaim the city of Boston. A daring plan was suggested--transporting 183 cannons from Fort Ticonderoga in New York to Boston. However, this meant moving the guns over the mountainous wilderness--a feat that was further impeded by the winter weather. Here, this event is replayed via the story of two brothers who participated in the mission.
