The American revolution has begun—and Rush Revere, Liberty the horse, and the time-traveling crew are ready to ride into the action!
Join us on this incredible time-travel adventure!
Liberty, my wisecracking horse, our old friends Cam, Tommy, Freedom, and I are off to meet some super-brave soldiers in the year 1775. Yep, that’s right. We’ll be visiting with the underdog heroes who fought for American independence, against all odds—and won! But not before eight very real years of danger and uncertainty. Be a part of Rush Revere’s crew as we rush, rush, rush into a time when British rule had become a royal pain, and rebellion was in the air. We’ll be on hand to see two lanterns hung in the Old North Church, prevent a British spy from capturing Paul Revere, and grapple with danger at the battles of Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill.
The extra special part of this trip is that right here in the twenty-first century, Cam’s dad is a soldier fighting in Afghanistan, and Cam has been pretty angry that he is away. Visiting with exceptional American heroes like Dr. Joseph Warren and George Washington, racing along after Paul Revere on his midnight ride, and seeing the Declaration of Independence signed make Cam see his own dad in a new and special way.
But don’t worry. Along with the danger, excitement, and patriotism, there will still be time to stop for a delicious spinach, oats, and alfalfa smoothie. No, wait—that one’s for Liberty. The kids and I voted for strawberries.
Now let’s open the magic portal to the past!

Rush Revere and the American Revolution
Will you be providing the audio book on iTunes for "Rush Revere and the American Revolution" soon? My kids have thoroughly enjoyed the other two audio books.
Great book!
This book is really good! It teaches about history while staying true to Christian faith. It’s mostly appropriate, with a talking, time-traveling horse, but there is some content parents might want to think about before letting their children read the book: talk of one of the main character’s dad fighting in the war in Afghanistan, a redcoat gets pepper-sprayed, and another character almost gets shot. There is no mortal injury, just a graze on the skin. Due to the mild violence and the long chapters, I would recommend this book for ages 10+. I hope you enjoy!
This book is so inspiring!
Awesome! Rush, we miss you brother. This book will teach our children the truth about history! I’m reading all of them.
