American Privateer: A Revolutionary War Pirate's Tale, (Hardcover)

In 1776, Daniel Barton's trading business has been ruined by the war with the British, and their blockade of his hometown, New York City. Nearly broke, he has been deemed unacceptable by the parents of the girl he loves, Rose Post. When General Benedict Arnold offers a chance at payment and a letter of marque if he'll help defend Lake Champlain against a British incursion, Daniel decides to take a chance and become a privateer. He'll raid British ships for the cause of freedom, and love.
