See HomeschoolChristian.com's review of this exciting book!
In Freedom's Cause - Liberty or death - this was the choice the people of 14th century Scotland faced if they rose up against their English ruler. The hero of the story, Archibald Forbes, joins the struggle for Scottish freedom led by the valiant Sir William Wallace and Robert the Bruce. The extraordinary valor and personal prowess of these men rival the deeds of the mythical heroes of chivalry.  Henty weaves a wonderful story around the actual events of 1314 at Bannockburn.
True to the Old Flag: A Tale of the American Revolutionary War - The Battles of Lexington and Concord, Bunker Hill, The Declaration of Independence, Washington Crossing the Delaware, Saratoga, and the final surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown – these are the scenes that stir the soul of many an American.  But to an Englishman, they do no such thing. Told from the British perspective, this novel helps listeners learn how the other side viewed this miraculous triumph of freedom that inspires millions throughout the world still today.
