It's fast paced, The Rebels bit of a historical soap opera, with a fantastic look at America's history The Rebels another couple of years of the Revolutionary War. The sacrifices the men in the Colonial Army made were incredible. George Clark makes a few appearances, too. Another interesting The Rebels was book piracy. Apparently everybody did it even though it was illegal, but the financial penalty was so small, it wasn't worth the time to prosecute for most. Our hero is plans to start his book selling business by republishing Thomas Paine's works. Imagine that! On to the next, The Seekers! The Rebels 1 comment.

Sep 05, Laura rated it liked it Shelves: americahfth-century-americareadhistorical-fictionfamily-sagahistory. I wasn't so enthusiastic with the plot of the The Rebels book of this series since Phillip has some childish behavior The Rebels missing his wife while he is fighting in the battlefields. In spite of this, I'm The Rebels a big fan of the Marquis of Lafayette. I must point out that the best books on the American Revolutionary War are Jeff Sharaa's 2 book series Rise to Rebellion and The Glorious Cause which are much better than JJ's series: more accurate historical facts, less romance and much better plot engaging the reader during the whole book.

Great storytelling from historical accounts of the Revolutionary war. And great character development. Every book written by this author seems to have a violent rape scene - not a fan. Mar 02, Samyann rated it it was amazing. These comments address The Kent Family Chronicles, the The Rebels series of eight books, in audiobook format. All books are narrated by Marc Vietor. The entire The Rebels is approximately hours of listening. Shortest book is Vietor does a good job with narration, although the uniqueness of male voices is problematic. Tempo and pacing fine, albeit the narration is a bit slow for my tas These comments address The Kent Family Chronicles, the entire series of eight books, in audiobook format. Tempo and pacing fine, albeit the narration is a bit slow for my taste, bumped it to 1. The entire series is a broad spectrum history of the United States from just pre-Revolutionary War through the s and a chronicle of the Kent family through this time. Beginning with Phillip through the generations to the children of Gideon, a The Rebels. The author skillfully intersperses vignettes of imagined and factual history. For example, two of the fictional characters of the The Rebels are sheltered for a few days at the home of the Lincolns in rural Kentucky - a baby is part The Rebels the family, young Abraham. The Rebels of the fictional characters is counseled by Benjamin Franklin. The series is rife with this type of paradigm, The Rebels it is not difficult to determine what is true and what is fiction. Much of the The Rebels is a fun methodology of conveying historical events. The stories are very listenable. I found no need to re-wind or fast- forward; no segment boring or irrelevant. In those areas where a sexual encounter is defined it is relevant to the plot and tastefully written. This does not occur often, but the clan does proliferate A word to the prudish: there are The Rebels couple of rapes vividly described. Very typical of the time written, the s, writing is a bit verbose. Several of these books were adapted for television mini-series, popular at the time. John Jakes is a terrific historical The Rebels author, recommended. Feb 11, David rated it it was amazing. Maybe even better than the first in the series.
