Book Description
The late seventeenth century was a pivotal moment in American history, full of upheavals and far-flung conspiracies. In the spring of 1676, Nathaniel Bacon, a hotheaded young newcomer to Virginia, led a revolt against the colony's Indian policies. Bacon's Rebellion turned into a civil war within Virginia--and a war of extermination against the colony's Indian allies--that lasted into the following winter, sending shock waves throughout the British colonies and into England itself. Historian James Rice captures the swirling rumors and central events of Bacon's Rebellion and its aftermath, weaving them into a dramatic tale that is part of the founding story of America.--From publisher description.

Book Description
Excerpt from Tales of the Revolution From the street came distant sounds of clattering droshkies and jingling tramway-bells, while in the courtyard far below harsh, angry voices could be heard. Yet up here all was deadly still. Suddenly the house-door banged, and the noise re-echoed throughout the building. Footsteps could be heard. Some one was coming upstairs at a great rate, hurrying round each landing, and taking two stairs at a time. As the steps reached the last landing and a figure was about to dash past the dim window the man outside the door suddenly moved towards it. Who's there cried the newcomer in a tone that betrayed more than mere astonishment. Is there a room to let, here Perhaps you may know asked the man at the door, sharply and decisively. Oh! A room I really can't say. Yes, I believe there is. You'd better ring. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
