Roxane Orgill
For my forthcoming book SIEGE, a verse novel about the start of the American Revolution, I got the idea from visiting battlefields with my husband and son over the course of several years. Monmouth and Princeton Battlefields, the site of the Crossing of the Delaware, Brandywine. I'd never been interested in them or in war, but something about being on site made me intensely curious. How do you start a war? And why? SIEGE is the result of my first exploration into those issues.
