Redskins and Lobsterbacks : A Remembrance of the American Revolution

By Shawn C. Roberts

William Tipton was an ordinary man caught in extraordinary times. This book tells of his Revolutionary War experiences. The war takes him to the western frontier of Fort Pitt. And from there to the wilds of Kentucky. The British and their Indian allies, the Shawnee and Cherokee are his enemy. William is a true patriot that will stay the course of the war, all the way to its climax the Siege of Yorktown. He will suffer great pain and heartache along the way, but will also create a home for his growing family and a great nation to live in. Men like Simon Kenton, James Harrod, Danial Morgan, Simon Girty, Marquis de Lafayette and even George Washington will cross William's path. His life and that of his three brothers: Thomas, Sylvester and Joshua are our nation's story, the American story.
