1775 Stories

Brianna Swift doesn't like that her father has been called to deal with rabble in America. And what's worse - he takes entire family with him. After months of travel on a creaky hideous ship, they finally make it to the land of the ungrateful citizens of King George the Third. Now, once living in a posh town house, she and her family are forced to make due with a less than adequate farm house on acers of land they haven't a clue how to use while Father goes off to keep those riff raff from destroying the Colonies. Arianna Swift on the other hand is ecstatic to be leaving boring old London where everything stays the same and there's always tea at five o'clock and snobby gossipers that talk of the new uprisings as if they're nothing but meaningless squabbles. Now she's here, and even if her sister doesn't agree, this could very well be the most exciting time of her life. Especially since Boston is where all the action is. Rosemary Swift just wants to make a new friend. Being the youngest doesn't get her much attention, not with two beautiful older sisters out there. She befriends a nice farm girl called Polly and that - well that's the start of half their troubles. Follow these three British born a bred girls as they maneuver their way through the dangerous times of the rising unsettlement and the beginning of the revolutionary war. A war that, not only changed history, but the people that were a part of it too. COVER BY ROXYBX THANKS!

When Paul Revere is kidnapped by a time traveler determined to change the outcome of the American Revolution, thirteen-year-old Kep Westguard is sent to Boston, 1775, to take his famous midnight ride. Kep's four-person team has twenty-four hours to light the famous lanterns at Old North Church, warn Lexington and Concord that the British are coming, and rescue John Hancock and Samuel Adams from hanging as traitors to the crown. As the clock ticks, one teammate is arrested as a runaway slave, a British watchman stops another from lighting the lanterns, and Kep nearly drowns when he attempts to cross the Charles River in a Patriot inventor's prototype wooden, hand-crank submarine. When Hancock and Adams ask Kep to sneak a trunk of critical papers out from under the eyes of the British Army during the Battle of Lexington, Kep has to decide how much he's willing to sacrifice for his country. If he fails, there will be no America to return to.

It is the night of of April 18, 1775, and the British Regulars are out to strike a blow against the rebellious colonists of Massachusetts. The young men of Acton, MA along with men from surrounding towns are called on to serve their colony. However, there is a major issue for these men, when they discover someone in their company is a spy for the British Army. Discovering the traitor in their midst in time could determine the outcome of one of the first battles of the Revolutionary War. This is dedicated to all of the patriots who served on the Lexington Alarm at the North Bridge, Bunker Hill, and elsewhere (this includes several of my ancestors). All Americans are indebted to them and their service to the cause for independence.

My name is Henri Clerval, and I was born in the city of Geneva in the year 1775, the son of a cloth merchant. I was an only child, and this for me was the cause of much unhappiness. My mother had died when I was very young, and there was no one to make peace between me and my father. Thus life at home became unhappy, and would have become impossible if I had not had Victor Frankenstein as a friend.
