Barney & Rose: Early American Heroes

More about the book

Many students of American history know of the heroics of Paul Revere, Ethan Allen, Nathaniel Green, and, of course, George Washington, but few know of these two men. Joshua Barney, 23 years old, and his friend and compatriot, David Rose, only 20, played vital roles in key battle, on land and sea, for their nation's independence from Britain. Rose's great grandson times six recounts how both of these brave men put their lives on the line and gave us the freedom we treasure today.
