  • "It is autumn 1777, and the cradle of liberty, Philadelphia, has fallen to the British. Yet the true battle has only just begun. On both sides, loyalties are tested and families torn asunder. A young Redcoat, Sam Gilpin, has seen his brother die. Now he must choose between duty to a distant king and the call of his own conscience. And for the men and women of the prosperous Becket family, the revolution brings bitter conflict between those loyal to the crown and those with dreams of liberty."@en
  • "Torn between two nations ... When Britain and America went to war it was as if brother fought against brother. They spoke the same language; might have walked the same hills as boys; they might even love the same woman. At the forefront of the battle, between roaring enemy guns and the backstabbing of their own politicians, stood the Redcoats. To the British, a Redcoat was the brave suppressor of upstart Yankee rebellion. To the American Patriots, the "Bloodybacks" were the thieves of their freedom and plunderers of their birthright. The rebels knew only too well that a soldier who was brave in the face of flames, smoke and death could be made weak by the swish of a muslin gown."@en
