Description
Set against the backdrop of one of America's most pivotal moments, Forge is a gripping historical novel that explores the complexities of freedom and survival. Curzon, a young runaway slave, finds himself at Valley Forge, where he must navigate the harsh realities of soldiering while keeping his true identity hidden.
As he forms an unlikely bond with Isabel, another captive at the camp, Curzon must confront the tangled threads of their friendship and the obstacles that stand between them and true freedom. With its keenly felt portrayal of life in 18th-century America, Forge is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that sheds light on a pivotal moment in American history.
Written by acclaimed author Laurie Halse Anderson, this is the second novel in her The Seeds of America trilogy. With its blend of historical accuracy and compelling storytelling, Forge is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the American Revolution and the experiences of those who lived through it.
