The year is 1775. The spirit of revolution has entered America. From humble beginnings as a blacksmith's son, Jonathan Wolfe is about to start his career as a physician. On a whim, Wolfe and his friend attend a meeting of the Sons of Liberty at a local Philadelphia tavern, unaware that this night will change the course of his entire life. Grace Lockhart, a stunning, amber-haired barmaid, enchants Wolfe, and she turns out to be more than a barmaid. Initially rejecting his attentions, they meet again and fall in love. As the war forces its way into the lives of Jonathan and those he cares for, he is transformed from pacifist to passionate revolutionary and enters the front lines of the rebellion. Author M. S. Weissbach brings us a gripping tale of action, romance, friendship, and medical achievements in The Golden Eagle. Relive the turbulent dawn of the United States through the eyes of Jonathan Wolfe and his companions. |
