Sarah Revere, daughter to a famous Patriot Paul Revere during the American Revolutionary War against Britain in 1775-83. Sarah was thirteen at that time, and her life during the war was very sad but touching. The overlooked historical figure, Dr. Joseph Warren who was friends with the Reveres, but got killed in the ending of the book. Sarah's step-mother, Rachel Walker who was nice woman, listening to the children (16 children from Paul Revere's previous marriage with Sarah Orne and few with Rachel Walker), more than Sarah grandmother, Grandma Revere. Her father, Paul, who often away from home, doing the dangerous missions. I really enjoyed this book, learning even more that I don't know about. - Happy Reading!
