Led by Washington: A Story of Courage and Quiet Faith
Led by Washington: A Story of Courage and Quiet Faith
Written by Mark Bureau
In the winter hills of Bolton Parish, a wheelwright named Mark Burel works by the light of his forge while the first whispers of revolution drift through New England.
When duty calls him from his quiet trade to the long road south, he joins the ranks of ordinary men who will help build a nation not with speeches or glory, but with endurance.
Beside him marches Jeffry Moreau, a blacksmith's son whose humor and faith steady the company through cold, hunger, and fear.
Together they carry the tools of their craft and the weight of their convictions across the frozen fields of Connecticut, through the valleys of Maryland and Virginia, and into the fire of battle where courage is measured not by victory, but by perseverance.
Told in poetic, reverent prose, Led by Washington reveals the Revolution as it was lived by those whose names history forgot the farmers, craftsmen, and soldiers who followed Washington's light with steadfast hearts and working hands.
It is a story of friendship, labor, and faith - a quiet hymn to endurance, written in the spirit of the land that shaped them.
For readers of Cold Mountain, The Killer Angels, and March, this novel captures the soul of early America - where ordinary people found extraordinary strength, and the truest victories were those of the heart.
