Synopsis

Following the passage of the Stamp Act of 1765, Hugh Kenrick attends the Stamp Act Congress in New York while Jack Frake forms a local chapter of the Sons of Liberty. After they foil a plan to smuggle the stamps into the colony, Dogmael Jones debates repeal with his allies in British Parliament, earning himself more enemies. Through these vividly drawn characters and events, Sparrowhawk V: Revolution continues the story of resistance to the Stamp Act, the true beginning of the American Revolution.

About this title

From the Publisher:

"A storyteller who veers in the direction of Charles Dickens and a philosopher who bears allegiance to Ayn Rand...the energy that Cline has to spend on this project is breathtaking." – Denver Post

"This is rich episodic history, written from Edward Cline’s viewpoint, with a wealth of details, both European and American." – Curledup.com

"Comparing favorably to the swashbuckling action of a Rafael Sabatini novel and the grueling realism of Bernard Cromwell, this is the best kind of historical fiction a tale that reflects and illuminates its age." – Publishers Weekly

About the Author:

In addition to the Sparrowhawk series, Edward Cline is the author of First Prize, a detective novel, and Whisper the Guns, a suspense novel. He lives in Yorktown, Virginia.
