The Regulars and Tories are burning Danbury! The militia is needed! Call to arms!” Families awoke; men dressed quickly, grabbed their muskets and headed out into the night to face a powerful foe. Sybil’s courageous ride earned her the nickname “the female Paul Revere.” All the events and charac- ters in this book are historical. Some of the dialogue in this book is verbatim, and some of the dialogue is conjecture – but based on historical events. This story not only tells the true compelling story of Sybil Ludington, but also of her father, his family, and other unsung heroes. See the brave-yet-humorous way Sybil and her siblings foil the Loyalists’ attempt to capture their father. Meet Enoch Crosby, a friend of the Ludingtons who disregarded the danger and served as a spy in the struggle for independence. Meet Jacob Angevine, a former slave who earned his freedom and that of his family by serving in the French and Indian War. And meet Joseph, Angevine’s teen- age son who was a friend of Sybil’s and a brave member of Ludington’s militia. Also, meet Daniel Nimham, sachem (chief) of the Wappinger Indians and his son, Abraham – true unsung American heroes who sacrificed everything during the war. One of the surprising char- acters readers meet is Benedict Arnold, who later becomes America’s most notorious trai- tor. He was once an admirable hero and played an inspiring and important part in this story. Dr. Larry Maxwell is the historian for the Town of Pat- terson who won the coveted Associated Press Writing Award while working as a journalist. He was chairman of the Company of Military Historians at West Point; is a re-enactor, historical tailor, and founder of The Living History Guild, which helps keep history alive; and worked as a historical advisor and costumer for films and television and ap- peared in numerous productions. He wrote a companion screenplay for this book and another, soon-to-be-released children’s book about Sybil Lud- ington called “Travels Through Time – A Revolutionary Ad- venture.” WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 2018 PUTNAM COUNTY PRESS/TIMES PAGE 13 The Art of the Perfect Gift (Family Features) Even in a * The gift of traveling in world where just about anything style: If you’re interested in giv- is a few clicks away, finding the ing a present that inspires adven- perfect gift for everyone on your ture, a piece of quality luggage list can still be a difficult task. may be all your loved one needs.

About FDIC Insurance: Currently, the FDIC limits the insured amount (including principal and interest) for all deposits held in the same capacity to $250,000 per depositor, per insured depository institution and $250,000 for certain retirement accounts. The FDIC insurance coverage is $250,000 for deposits held in all ownership categories, including single accounts, joint accounts and trust accounts. Therefore, excess holdings may not be insured. IRAs and certain other retirement accounts will maintain the $250,000 insurance coverage. About Liquidity: Funds may not be withdrawn until the maturity JOSEPH DIVESTEA, CRPC® MARK MEZZONE, AAMS® date or redemption date. However, the brokered CDs are negotiable, which means that, although not obligated to do so, Raymond James and other broker/dealers presently maintain an active secondary market at current Managing Director Financial Advisor interest rates. Market value will fluctuate and, if the CD is cashed out prior to maturity, the proceeds may be more or less than the original purchase price.
