Reseña del libro "American Knights (2): Miles Knight: The Patriot (en Inglés)"
American Knights Series II "Miles Knight: The Patriot" This book is historical and ancestral; Miles Knight, the 5th GGrandfather (circa 1747) of author Lance Knight came to the American Colonies as an indentured servant.His indenture contract was purchased by a gentleman tobacco farmer named John Mead from Connecticut. Mr. Mead ultimately adopted the young, Miles Knight, into the Mead family who had years before adopted an English baby name Mary Ingles. Miles and Mary fell in love and were married in 1771, at which time John Mead gave them a 200 acre farm in North Carolina, as a wedding present. He also gave them a black slave by the name of Big Boy. Miles immediately freed Big Boy and asked him to come south with them to North Carolina where they created a fine plantation from the acreage. American and ancestral history is woven into this fictional account of the life and times of Miles and Mary Knight. The tapestry reveals the kinds of lives colonial Americans experienced as they were suffering high taxes and other excesses at the hands of the British. Even though much of the American citizenry was sparsely populated in remote farms and villages, the siren call of American Patriots grew louder and they resisted more violently the aggression of the British Army and Navy. The Americans who were loyal (Loyalists) to the Crown were ostracized and hated by the Patriots as traitors because they worked and fought on the side of England. So even with the success Miles, Mary and Big Boy had with the new farm/plantation, they were being inexorably drawn into the conflict. John Mead became Brigadier General John Mead per appointment by Thomas Jefferson. Miles was inducted in the 10th North Carolina Regiment of the Continental Army by John Mead. The reader will experience the mystery, the fighting, the indecision and the joys of these young American Knights as they firmly plant their lives into the soil and the pride of the American fight for freedom and independence from a repressive, domineering, occupying force called the British Empire.
