Happy 4th You Traitorous Colonials

In case you're looking for something to do this 4th of July, though I'd share a few of my patriotic-type favorites . . .

FAVORITE PATRIOTIC SERIES

Turn: Washington's Spies
This is the story of New York farmer Abe Woodhull who's father is a Loyalist but he's got Patriotic leanings. It shows the dilemma many Colonists found themselves in, whether they wanted to fight or not.

FAVORITE PATRIOTIC BOOK

Lori' Benton's The Pathfinder Series: Book I is The Wood's Edge and Book II is A Flight of Arrows. Book III isn't out yet.

FAVORITE PATRIOTIC MOVIE

The Patriot by Mel Gibson. Yeah, I know I"ll get a lot of crap for that. Sure, it's not completely historically accurate but doggone if it isn't an edge-of-the-seat kind of tale. Plus I got to visit Historic Brattonsville in South Carolina where they filed part of it.

Okay, that ought to keep you busy for awhile. I've to got a few Chicago dogs and apple pie to go slam down.
