The revolutionary war in the Southern colonies at its most raw Sumner's Journey chronicles the path of farmer turned soldier, Gabriel Sumner, from the Battle of Cowpens through Guilford Court House, two of the Revolutionary War's most important battles, as well as the Race to the Dan River, one of the Revolutionary War's bloodiest campaigns. Dissect the strategy and relive the savagery of the fighting during the many scrimmages of that campaign, fighting which often devolved into hand-to-hand combat. March with Gabriel and his men as they endure cold, hunger, and supply shortages while facing off against Banestre "Bloody Ban" Tarleton and the might of Lieutenant General Charles Lord Cornwallis's army. Reminding one and all of the sacrifices bore by the common soldier to secure our freedom from England. Be with Gabriel as he is transformed from farmer and simple soldier to an officer in the 1st Maryland Infantry enduring the prejudice of being raised from the ranks. Follow his transformation from rejected figure to the regiment's most revered officer. Sumner's Journey is a must-read for anyone wishing to learn about our struggle for independence.
Sarah Jane Conklin - As an artist and a writer, Sarah Jane is inspired by the scenic beauty where she has lived, including her birthplace, St. John's, Newfoundland, and her seasonal home in Skiff Lake, New Brunswick. She now lives in Fall River, Nova Scotia with her husband, and spends her days painting, writing, and playing with her grandchildren. Venus Angelica is an OCAD University alumni who was born in Toronto and now calls Fredericton, New Brunswick her home. Venus loves to create a sense of curiosity in her illustrative work, and hopes to spark some creativity, wonder, and positive development in her audience. Inspired by the classics like Suess, Silverstein, and Where's Waldo," she grew up on a steady diet of fantastical picture books. Her fondest memories are of her parents reading to her in silly voices, creating a sense of safety, connection, and fun before bedtime.
