1) Cardigan
This classic tale of bravery in the face of almost unimaginable odds is a must-read for fans of historical fiction with a strong action-adventure bent. Intrepid protagonist Michael Cardigan has a steadfast belief in the right of the American colonies to achieve the independence they so desperately desire. He'll lay his life on the line for his patriotism—will his sacrifice be enough?
Gender roles in the American Revolutionary War period were not exactly a bastion of progressiveness. However, even during a time when most women were encouraged to shrink from conflict and follow the lead of any man in the vicinity, there were a few iconoclastic females who broke this mold. The defiantly independent heroine at the center of The Hidden Children steadfastly refuses to be held down by social conventions she sees as useless.
...The follow-up to Chambers' remarkably popular bestseller Cardigan, The Maid-at-Arms begins a century after America's Revolutionary War has been settled. The young nation has forgotten the struggles of its birth and is now facing an entirely different—but no less daunting—set of challenges. Against this backdrop, an unlikely hero emerges.
