In the British colonies of North America there arose a band of brave men and women who forged a free and independent nation. Their names live on today, as does their legacy, and we proudly call them Patriots. Boston and Cambridge, 1775. War becomes a reality as redcoats and rebels alike swarm toward the bustling seaport city of Boston, while a growing band of patriots gathers across the Charles River in Cambridge. Sworn to the patriots' cause, Daniel Reed joins an army of militiamen near Bunker Hill, while his young brother, Quincy, accompanies frontiersman Murdoch Buchanan on a perilous journey through the dangerous Mohawk River valley. As cannon fire thunders across the colonies, rebel sympathizer Elliot Markham vows he will find the British traitor in their midst; and fiery patriot Roxanne Darragh fights to return to her beloeved Daniel as, together and apart, they risk their lives for the dream of a free country.
