Publisher Description
Samuel, 13, spends his days in the forest, hunting for food for his family. He has grown up on the frontier of a British colony, America. Far from any town, or news of the war against the King that American patriots have begun near Boston.
But the war comes to them. British soldiers and Iroquois attack. Samuel’s parents are taken away, prisoners. Samuel follows, hiding, moving silently, determined to find a way to rescue them. Each day he confronts the enemy, and the tragedy and horror of this war. But he also discovers allies, men and women working secretly for the patriot cause. And he learns that he must go deep into enemy territory to find his parents: all the way to the British headquarters, New York City.

Great book
This book is one of the few books that did not make me dread reading it, and only one other book has done that!

Great book
waste of time
read this in class and could barely understand any of its rigged vocabulary. the chapters are long and i often fall asleep while reading it. in the end, i had nearly no idea what the story was and i did not understand the main idea.
