This book not only gives you an insight into the true character of the heroes and villains active in the early stages of the American Revolution, but also introduces you to some of the characters who got little if no publicity then or now, yet played a vital part in the rebellion. It also provides information on some of the hilarity and hardships experienced by the average Yankee as he struggled for freedom in enemy-controlled New England.

From the Author

George Twelvetrees Hewes wasn't a midget, but he was close. After his funny exploits during the American Revolution,he wrote a journal, and the author uses this journal to weave his tantalizing true story of those great and little known characters who won us our independence from England. People like Revere,John Adams and Hancock, were not considered heroes by their conpatriots, whereas the eccentric Otis and the crafty Warren were the real leaders, their names almost forgotten now-a real incite into the courage, humor and day to day lives of our Revolutionaries.
