Produktbeschreibung
The fourth book in the enthralling Revolution at Sea series It is the summer of 1776 in the former Crown Colony of New York. A fleet of British transport ships are looming off Staten Island, while on Brooklyn Heights the remnants of General George Washington´s army are huddled behind hastily constructed fortifications. There, Captain Isaac Biddlecomb seeks Washington´s help - only to find that Washington is preparing for the final destruction of the Continental army. Biddlecomb, commanding the brig-of-war Charlemagne , receives a monumental order. He is to transport to France the most dangerous secret weapon in the country´s arsenal: scientist and philosopher Benjamin Franklin. Leading a new crew through the wintry North Atlantic, braving the cordon of the Royal Navy, Biddlecomb´s seemingly simple mission to deliver Franklin to the court of Louis XVI is just the first volley in a grand scheme. While Biddlecomb is boldly raiding the English coast and Franklin is discussing strategy at Versailles, they both conspire to blow French neutrality out of the water - and turn the colonial uprising into a full-scale war. A novel of epic scope and staggering adventure which is as commanding and as vivid as history itself.
