June 27, 2016 – Today, we jump through the Guardian of Forever and into New York City during the American Revolution — just in time for Independence Day 2016. Once there, we meet twelve-year-old Gabriel Cooper, an orphaned patriot who sets out to join the Continental Army.
Our guest is Chris Stevenson, and his book is The Drum of Destiny, historical fiction for readers 9-12 years of age.
