Rush Revere and the American Revolution

Adventures of Rush Revere #3

by Rush Limbaugh, Kathryn Adams Limbaugh (Contributor)

The American revolution has begun—and Rush Revere, Liberty the horse, and the time-traveling crew are ready to ride into the action!

Join us on this incredible time-travel adventure!

Liberty, my wisecracking horse, our old friends Cam, Tommy, Freedom, and I are off to meet some super-brave soldiers in the year 1775. Yep, that’s right. We’ll be visiting with the underdog heroes who fought for American independence, against all odds—and won! But not before eight very real years of danger and uncertainty. Be a part of Rush Revere’s crew as we rush, rush, rush into a time when British rule had become a royal pain, and rebellion was in the air. We’ll be on hand to see two lanterns hung in the Old North Church, prevent a British spy from capturing Paul Revere, and grapple with danger at the battles of Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill.

The extra special part of this trip is that right here in the twenty-first century, Cam’s dad is a soldier fighting in Afghanistan, and Cam has been pretty angry that he is away. Visiting with exceptional American heroes like Dr. Joseph Warren and George Washington, racing along after Paul Revere on his midnight ride, and seeing the Declaration of Independence signed make Cam see his own dad in a new and special way.

But don’t worry. Along with the danger, excitement, and patriotism, there will still be time to stop for a delicious spinach, oats, and alfalfa smoothie. No, wait—that one’s for Liberty. The kids and I voted for strawberries.

Now let’s open the magic portal to the past!

About the author

American radio host and conservative political commentator.

His nationally-syndicated talk show, The Rush Limbaugh Show, airs throughout the world on Premiere Radio Networks. He has been credited with reviving AM radio in the United States, and is considered to have been a "kind of national precinct captain" for the Republican Party's Congressional victories in 1994.

National Review magazine, in a 1993 cover story, called him "The Leader of the Opposition" during the Clinton presidency. A month after Bill Clinton's defeat of the the Elder Bush in 1992, Ronald Reagan sent Limbaugh, a man he never met, a letter in which he thanked Limbaugh "for all you're doing to promote Republican and conservative principles...[and] you have become the Number One voice for conservatism in our Country."

My kids seem to really like these Rush Revere books. I think they must be tailored specifically to the 9-13 year old crowd. They don't really cross over into the grown-ups-enjoy-them-just-as-much area. I keep finding myself reading out-loud to them and zoning out. But they really like them and they never lose interest. They're not bad books and they do teach American history in a way that seems to interest this age group, so I do appreciate that. I'd just never pick them for myself. When we read a book together, we rate the book together. They said 5 stars, I'd say 3. So this is a 4 star compromise.

Rush Revere and the American Revolution continues the youth series about American history written by Rush Limbaugh. This is the third book in the series and it focuses on pivotal events that took place during the American Revolution.
We got this book for our oldest daughter for Christmas and I have been waiting to read it – I had to wait until she read it first. I have read the first two books in the series and actually really enjoyed them. I usually read youth books so I know what my children are reading, but I have been looking forward to the Rush Revere books because I usually learn something new about history, too. (Historical fiction is my favorite genre.)
In the series, Rush Revere is a substitute teacher for history who owns a very special horse named Liberty. Liberty can talk, make himself invisible when he holds his breath and can travel through time. Rush Revere uses this ability of Liberty’s to take students back in time to witness historical events or he goes alone to take picture and videos to share with his class. The few students who have gone back in time in the previous books meet up for summer school sessions to learn about the American Revolution. They visit Paul Revere for his midnight ride, the Battle of Bunker Hill and the Constitutional Convention. An overlying reason for the visits are to help one student, Cam, try to understand why his father, who is in the Marines, has had to deploy.
As a military brat, I truly appreciate Rush Limbaugh’s effort to focus on a military brat and his feelings about his father going away for a long time. Military families make great sacrifices to support their military members. Children can have a hard time dealing with the lifestyle as it requires maturity and understanding of world events and issues. This is a great book for any child ages 7 and up. It will teach them about the history of this country and give them an understanding of what military children go through during a deployment.

The author has a really cool way of telling the stories of American history. Not only that, but gives them a personality in the books that make you love your ancestors and founders even more than you did before. This series also teaches how to solve different problems in the character's lives, and teaches the readers good morals.

[Christen · Rating 3 out of 5]

Entertaining and cute. Liberty is hilarious comic relief that children will enjoy. A good series for introducing American history.

This particular book had a bully which resulted in quite a bit of name calling that I didn’t especially appreciate. The middle school children also have InstaGram and that’s not something I support.

I thoroughly enjoyed this dive into history! Even though it is written for middle grade I myself enjoyed having history come to life for me.

History is presented in a way that makes me curious about some of the finer details that aren’t talked about!

[Bookluvr7 · Rating 5 out of 5]

This really only took me 3 days to read but I didn’t read it a lot of days in between. But, I feel like this one had not as much happen as the first two. But I still thoroughly enjoyed it and had a lot of fun with this one. This one definitely stressed me the most because there was a lot at stake. With a war going on after all. But ended as history did and was overall a good time. This series is definitely great for kids.

4.75/5⭐️

[Jason Pierce · Rating 3 out of 5]

Once again, I can practically copy/paste what I say in my reviews of the first two books here. In fact, just see my review for the second book to get the gist. There are a couple of updates, though.

*It flows a little better than the last two, but just a bit, and that really ain't saying much because there was a ton of room for improvement in those.

*Rush's head is still huge, but I think there's just one picture of it in this one.

*There's still the same issue of Cam, the black kid, just simply fitting in and chatting it up with the colonials, and I'm sorry, that just didn't happen back then.

I've now read three of these, and even though I like them, I must pronounce them as "dorky." Still, they work just fine for the target audience of elementary age kids, and it's the kind of humor they'd appreciate, so who cares what 43-year-old Pierce thinks about them.

Here's a bit of the plot. In modern day America, Cam is upset his dad is away from home because he's serving in Afghanistan. He doesn't understand, and he's also getting picked on by a bully. Enter Rush Revere, and they go back to witness parts of the American Revolution starting with Paul Revere's ride, going through the battles of Lexington and Concord, and witnessing the signing of the Declaration of Independence. After witnessing the battle of Concord, Cam figures out a plan on how to deal with his bully which involves a dodgeball game, and it was here that I discovered we were playing it wrong in elementary school all those years. They also took some liberties with the rules, and I would've cried foul at the final solution, but whatever. Cam also understands why his father has to be away to serve his country and protect our freedoms after witnessing parts of the Revolution. One can argue about Afghanistan being about protecting our country. I believe it started out that way, and we were successful in that mission, but it devolved into something else and went on waaaaaaaay longer than it needed to, and then the withdrawal was botched so badly... well, I don't need to get into all that; that was after this book was written (2014).

One thing I like about the Rush Revere books is that they're unapologetically patriotic and American which I find refreshing. And since I finished this on July fourth, and this book coincidentally ends on both July 4th, 1776 and July 4th of either 2013 or 2014 (I assume), and I'm feeling all Fourthy after watching the Capitol Fourth on PBS, and a couple of patriotic movies earlier, and listening to some patriotic songs, and playing a few patriotic songs on the piano, and singing a couple to amuse myself, and setting off some Blackcats earlier to solemnize the holiday, I'll leave you with these:

You're a Grand Old Flag from Yankee Doodle Dandy which gives me goose bumps every time, especially the finale which starts around the three minute mark. And since we're already Yankee Doodle Dandying, here's the finale to the movie. The reprise for "Over There," which coincidentally also starts around the three minute mark (though if you skip to it you'll miss James Cagney tap dancing down the steps), also gets me every time because I'm such a silly ninny when it comes to that kind of thing.

Rocky IV is also unapologetically patriotic, so here's Living in America.

And today's Dustin comic:



...Though now that I think about it, that would've fit better with the last book, Rush Revere and the First Patriots, since that one actually covers the Boston Tea Party. Oh well.

In book #3 of the series, teacher extraordinaire Rush Revere, his wisecracking horse Liberty, and their friends Cameron (Cam), Tommy, and Freedom are off on another time-traveling adventure off to meet some brave soldiers in the year 1775. They get to visit with such heroes as Dr. Joseph Warren, Paul Revere, John Hancock, Sam Adams, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and, of course, George Washington. With them, the reader will get to see the two lanterns hung in the Old North Church, ride with Paul Revere to warn “The British are coming!”, and grapple with danger at the battles of Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill.

Along the way, what will Cam learn about his absent father, with whom he’s angry because his soldier dad has been sent to fight in Afghanistan for a year? As with the other two books in this series, there are some people who absolutely hate this book, with comments like, “This book was simple minded….The book is bad–really, really bad with stilted dialogue, ridiculous characters, and banal cliches….This simple-minded, terribly unimaginative, badly written book….This piece of trash….A piece of garbage….To expose children to his bluster at such a young age just can’t be good for their developing minds.” Interestingly enough, none of the critical reviewers actually cited any historical inaccuracies, biased claims, or other erroneous statements. They just kept saying that it was badly written, simple minded trash or garbage.

I would conclude that they’re probably just a bunch of sour leftists who can’t laugh at anything, despise everything that smacks of genuine patriotism, and likely think that “Harry Potter” and “His Dark Materials” are the best books available in children’s literature today. Simply by way of full disclosure, Liberty does say that he’s “Gotta Pee Soon,” the euphemistic “geez” is used once, and a soldier at the Battle of Concord is quoted as shouting, “Fire, for God’s sake.” Of course, there’s a lot of Rush Limbaugh shtick in the story. However, that’s just designed to use humor in making it catchy so that it will capture kids’ attention and appeal to their imaginations with the idea that as they read they’ll absorb the real history that’s being described.

{Rated G} Rush has done it again! How cool are these books that they allow our young one’s to really dive into our American history and be immersed in the reality of how our Nation was truly founded. I read this with my 10 year old and we loved it. To learn about how our freedom was won over the British soldiers and King George III is fascinating. As well as learning that America at the time was the true underdog, but with patience, a lot of strategy and smarts, and down right determination, George Washington (before he became president) and his army’s truly came out on top because of something they truly believed in... FREEDOM! Great book!

[Amanda Geaney · Rating 5 out of 5]

Rush Limbaugh has written a children’s literature trifecta: espousing a love of God, country, and service to others. In Rush Revere and the American Revolution readers accompany a middle school teacher and a hand full of students as they leap between modern day and the mid-1770’s. These historical journeys beginning with the placement of signal lights in the Old North Church for Paul Revere’s famous ride and draw to a close with the signing of the Declaration of Independence. During each visit into the past the children encounter courageous patriots, men of character, who selflessly risk their lives for the cause of freedom. Upon their return to modern day, Rush Limbaugh illustrates through his characters the wisdom that can be gained by investigating the past.

Historically accurate and hilariously funny Rush Revere has ignited an excitement for Revolutionary History in my children. Now when they learn new facts about this time period they equate it to a portion of this book. While they know horses cannot talk or travel through time, Limbaugh’s fictional tale was the perfect mode of delivery for the historical truths contained within these pages. He has made learning fun! What more can a parent ask for?

He also adds a touching nod to our military service members! In the story, Rush Revere answers a mother’s plea for help with her son Cameron. Cam’s father, a U.S. Marine, has been deployed to Afghanistan and his absence has taken a toll on Cameron. Withdrawn, angry, and bitter, her son has been lashing out. By way of a mentoring relationship with Rush and their encounters with extraordinary American patriots, Cam’s defenses fall as he gains understanding about why his father serves.

Well-composed, entertaining, and inspiring Rush Revere and the American Revolution earns 5/5 stars.

We have two copies of the book (one to read and one to loan) and children love reading the series. (Much like the Harry Potter series, there are young people in the books that relate to youthful readers.) As grandparents, we are fans of the Rush Revere series, and you will not be disappointed. Of course, my wife and I know a lot about American history, having gone through public school when they used to teach the amazing stories. Even so, we learn insights that are new to us. God Save America. Rush and Kathryn Limbaugh have done an amazing job and we love hearing Rush's enthusiasm (and voices) as he reads to us.

Dedicated to our great military (soldiers and their families) the story in the third book correlates a young man in the book whose father is in Afghanistan to the battles of Founding Fathers. There is also a challenge with a bully at the modern-day school that will be interesting to youthful readers (and grandparent, and parents). I highly recommend the series and the third the best.

My grandson and I are enjoying reading about Liberty, the time traveling horse. This is the third book in the series we've read this month. He can't get enough. While having laughs over Liberty's antics, we are learning about American history and our Founding Fathers. We got snapshots of Lexington, Concord, Bunker and Breeds Hill, Henry Knox and Fort Ticonderoga, George Washington, Thomas Paine, and the signing of The Declaration of Independence. We are having fun and he is learning.

I really liked this book because I liked learning about the history and all of the historic events that happened. Also I like how there was some fantasy when they time travelled.

this book is awesome

[Busy · Rating 2 out of 5]

DNF because this book was downright boring. I thought, "OK, a book about American History written by a conservative radio guy. Let's see if he puts an incorrect slant on history." So I read and waited for the history and action to start. And waited. And finally 20% of the book had passed and still barely anything had happened except insults and corny jokes. The characters weren't very well developed, the talking horse wasn't very funny, the plot was continued from the earlier books without much explanation, the plot was slow, and the writing wasn't exciting. And like I said, almost nothing happened in the first fifth of the book.

Politics aside,* the thing I didn't like about this book is how almost every character engaged in spin- not giving clear answers to questions, insulting the character of who they didn't like, answering a question with a question, and turning suspicion around by blaming others. These may have made Rush Limbaugh attract an audience but are bad examples of communication for people who want to get along with others, especially kids. This is less a history book and more a masterclass in grumpy old man talk, much like Rush's radio show felt more like it was about the outrageous things he would say and not actually the news.

Do you want your kids to idolize and copy Rush Limbaugh? If not, you might want to think twice before giving them these book because kids love copying others. That being said, these books hardly seem offensive enough to be banned or forbidden. If your kid wants to read them, let them. But if it were me I would do some research on the best history books for kids and give them a few other options along with this book. Then they can look at all of the books and may discover that this one is...well, a snoozefest.






*Regarding politics: I didn't really detect any, other than Rush Revere saying America is the best country in the world and that the Pilgrims came to America to worship God openly, which is a half truth that can be used to back up conservative arguments that blur the line between church and state. If this book is meant to get kids into politics, he didn't do a great job of that either!

Rush Revere and the American Revolution by Rush Limbaugh – Completed 04/21/2023
To my Grandson G.J.M., children, B.J.M.; A.N.C.; T.L.L. and their spouses.
I grew up watching Mr. Ed on TV. Mr. Ed was a talking, wise-cracking, funny horse but very smart and logical. Here in this book, you see the talking horse, Liberty the same way. Always cracking jokes and looking for the next meal.
This is book three of the five volume series, covering the most important parts of our history. Events could not have taken place without some freedom fighters called Minutemen, farmers jumping into war at a minute notice. These American Patriots, like Paul Revere ride to tell the townsfolks that the British were invading. The warning lead to the battle at Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts when the British Redcoats were confronted by the Minutemen. There was more British killed and wounded than the Minutemen. It forced the British back to Boston. In Boston the British thought that had a safe haven until Henry Knox dragged 58 artillery cannons 300 miles from Ft Ticonderoga, NY to Boston where the Minutemen confronted the British again. That’s when they decided to get back on their boats and return to England.
Imagine being selected to represent one of the original 13 newly formed colonies and put together these words: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Then you get to sign your name to the document creating the Declaration of Independence. It took many years for the colonists to push back against the British rule governing the colonies. We wanted our own country, ruled by the people themselves. After this, we told the British to shove it up their ass and off our soil. We sent a copy of the Declaration of Independence to the King as a good measure.
I hope my Grandson, G.J.M. finds these book interesting and becomes a proud American like his father and grandfather. Please share the book with him.
Love Harley (grandfather name) T.R.M.

Rush Revere and the American Revolution by Rush Limbaugh and his wife, Kathryn Adams Limbaugh. This is the third book in the series. The book opens in the 18th Century with the main characters, teacher Rush Revere and his horse Liberty, both who can time jump to and from the present day after getting struck by lightning. They met in secret with the patriot John Adams at the North Church in Boston and came up with a plan to disarm the British by sneaking aboard their ship to steal their weapons. Mr. Revere helped by giving the all clear signal. After that event, they jumped back to present day, and appeared at a military base camp, which was home to one of his students, Cam. Because his dad was in the military, he was going to have to leave suddenly to fight, and Cam was upset. In the middle of the story, the students and Mr. Revere decide to start a summer class, and they travel to the beginning, middle, and end of the American Revolution. It was while watching the Patriots fight the British for their freedom that Cam realized why his dad left so suddenly; to help fight for America's freedom.


Readers will learn that people want and need freedom, but also that there is a cost for freedom. The Patriots wanted freedom so much that some made the ultimate sacrifice with their lives. As Americans, this sense of freedom has become so ingrained, and so valued. We are constantly working to keep that freedom, and sometimes, we die for it. Currently our Military is off fighting for freedom right now!


Is this book for you?
Yes, especially if you are interested in history. Lots of people will enjoy this book especially my fellow historians. The content is perfect for a young adult reader because they will be learning more about world and American history. The first book in the series,Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims is also a stellar book. Join “Rush Revere’s time-traveling adventures and go rush, rush, rushing through history”
If readers enjoyed Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims than Rush Revere and the American Revolution is the book for those readers!

Rush Revere and the American Revolution tells you about some of the people who are a big part of our American history, such as George Washington, Patrick Henry, Paul Revere, Samuel Adams and John Adams.
My review - Rush Revere and the American revolution is an extremely exciting book, it can take you on an adventure back to the 1600s. This is one of the best books I've ever read! You will learn lots of American history in an exciting way. Don't worry, it's not boring like you would think a book about American history would be! It's extremely exciting and I think it's the best way to learn about American history.

It's not often I enjoy a fantasy, but when authors create a story that's historical fantasy, it's hard to dislike the storyline! My book club and I just completed this story together, and it hooked my readers from the start. The story jumps from recent time - where a young boy, Cam, misses his dad who is active/ deployed military. He's getting himself into a bit of trouble with peers, starting fights, etc. He is a lucky kid, though, to have a teacher like Rush Revere. Rush can literally 'Rush them into history' with his time-jumping horse, Liberty. Cam and friends are rushed back to Lexington, Concord, and ultimately Bunker Hill. The kids are learning so many lessons on life, leadership, and cause of duty. While the story jumps back and forth from the Revolution and current time, we can follow Cam's development for understanding how to overcome being the underdog and missing his father.
We all LOVED this book, which was designated for my lower readers. It was a longer story, but with it being packed full of cartoon illustrations and actual portraits/ materials used during the time, we had so much fun reading this story and coming to understand how to channel anger/ despair. We all recommended it, and there was a bit of an argument over who got to start by reading the next in the series!

[Janet · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was the best of the series so far! My daughters were very interested in this era of American history, and my oldest is now inspired to find more books on the colonial/Revolutionary War time period. I loved how the storyline highlighted the major events while linking it back to the desire for liberty and freedom that was sought after by the Pilgrims (in book 1). It was nice that through experiencing this time period with time-travel, one of the present-day characters learned why his dad was currently serving in the Middle East and what sacrifices he was making for his country (the very same sacrifices those that served in the 1700’s were making).

I have to admit, the talking horse Liberty is getting a little annoying, but this is the comic relief of the series - it’s what keeps my kids engaged and loving it.

We plan to read the rest of the series together, eventually (my husband read book 2 with them before I read this one), and we’ve heard Rush has plans to write more... Can’t wait!

"Rush Revere and the American Revolution" by Rush Limbaugh was a fun read I picked up to pass the time. As the title shows, this book puts a spin on the history books as a substitute and talking horse travel back in time to experience this monumental time in America first hand. I didn't learn as much as I would have liked from this American history novel but it was certainly a fun rendition of that era in time.
Limbaugh is not a complex writer but his words still create captivating pictures and scenes from moments in time the reader already has a preexisting memory of. Readers going into this book not expecting a challenge but a fun journey through time will be happy with their time dedicated to this book.

[Matt Trimble · Rating 2 out of 5]

Oh my Lord this was bad. My mom bought it for me and its sat on my shelf for a while. I wasn't interested in it but I thought I'd read it just to get rid of it.
This is definitely a children's book. I thought it'd be more like an adult graphic novel or something. I really like the layout and most of the historical pictures. Even have to give props for trying to find a way to teach kids about history, but it is so freaking corny and cheesy! I had to skip the dodge ball game entirely.

It's not even a good teaching tool. Its just them using a magical horse to Sherman and Peabody their way back to select battles. I thought about keeping it for my son but by the end of it I decided to give it to Goodwill....send them my apologies please.

[Stacey · Rating 4 out of 5]

After I moved past associating Rush Limbaugh's voice with "talk radio" I actually enjoyed his narration of the story. Rush Revere and his dependable time-traveling, wise-cracking horse, Liberty, bring history to life for students Cameron, Tommy, and Freedom, as well as, teach them to apply what they have learned to the challenges they face today. The story has serious and humorous moments and the pace is quick and does not bog down. The story is written in such a way to engage parents and their children to learn history together or separately. (Psst...I wish I had had stories to bring history alive like this when I was in elementary school!)

[Kiernan Kovac · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really enjoyed Rush Limbaugh's American Revolution. He accurately tells the history of the American Revolution and how it happened but in a fun and creative way. He goes by the name Rush Revere and his horse Liberty, and his students, Cam, Tommy, and Freedom time travel back to witness what happened during the American Revolution. What I really liked about this book was the fact that Rush Limbaugh took the reader back to all of the important events that occurred such as the battles of Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill. He also took you on a ride with Paul Revere. Overall this book was very informational but not boring. It makes you think about history in fun way.

Historical Fiction
3rd-6th grade
I loved this book as a kid and have fond memories of my mom reading it to us during school. It takes a fun time-traveling approach to reach historical times, but still manages to address problems the characters are dealing with in the real world. The stories of history come alive and become relevant through the experiences of the characters, both real-life heroes of history and fictional ones created for the book. Kids will love this series (I certainly did) and it makes what happened in the past appealing, as answers for current problems may have solutions from strategies found in history.

[Kevin · Rating 4 out of 5]

The book Rush Revere and the American Revolution by Rush Limbaugh tells the story of Paul Revere and the Declaration of Independence. In the book Rush Revere meets Paul Revere and helps him with the message:("The British are coming, the British are coming."). Overall, I thought that the book was awesome and interesting. The best part of the book was imagining Thomas Jefferson and all the others, sign the Declaration of Independence. The book talked about a couple other things about history. I would rate this 11 and up.

[Gretchen · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the third in the Rush Revere series that I highly recommend for middle school readers. It's a great, easily read story of the American Revolution that keeps young people involved. Most of the historical main characters are known to us, but Mr. Limbaugh introduces lesser known participants as well. I got this for my grandchildren to encourage them to learn more about the struggles are country endured to become the great nation it is. However, I am enjoying reading the series as well.
Keep up the good work, Mr. Limbaugh.
