I Loved this book, the way he weaves his characters into his other books is nothing short brilliant in my opinion. Mr.Mason's attention to detail in the day to day life of first a young colonial boy to a young apprentice to soldier in the Continental Army. I felt like I was right there with him. Great series of books.
