The Rose and the Lion

By Charles J. Musser

It's 1776 in the American colonies, and revolution is in the air. Richard Pierpoint, torn from his home in Africa as a young boy and sent across the sea as a slave, hears the word "freedom" repeatedly, and yearns for a better life. When the British offer freedom to any slave who joins the British Army, Richard, and the beautiful and mysterious Shenandoah, who has stolen his heart, escape from their masters and begin a quest in the pristine forests of the Mohawk Valley to join the British guerilla unit, Butler's Rangers. Their story, and the story of the other escaped slaves who join them on their bid for freedom, has never been told in the history books. It's a tale of adventure, struggle, hardship, love, courage and, ultimately, triumph.
