Johnny Tremain and the American Revolution

By Corona Brezina

The story of Johnny Tremain begins in the summer of 1773 in Boston just as the British are asking colonists to pay to support British troops in the colonies. Johnny, a young apprentice silversmith, finds himself amid the fomenting anger of the colonists in the opening days of the American Revolution. This fascinating book uses excerpts from the novel and primary source images to focus on how this classic novel used real events and people to create a story that is historically accurate and compelling to read.
