The Sunshine Patriot is a historical fiction tale of the American Revolutionary War, as told through the eyes and experiences of a young boy and his widowed mother. Their story reveals that the drama and danger of the fight for freedom from tyranny were more diverse and complex than our history books tell us. Captured by Loyalist troops when he was only 12 years old, our hero conquered his reserve to gain a better understanding of the world around him. He chose to honorably fight for the freedoms we have taken for granted and enjoyed for over 250 years.
Author BIO
Rusty Watson
This novel, as well as my other novels, are based on real family members and I have used their real names. I have wedded historical facts with oral history, but the fabric of the stories and their dialogue are fictional. It is not my intention to dishonor or disrespect the persons mentioned but merely imagine their story the way they might have lived it.
