N2  - Summary: In Rise to Rebellion, acclaimed author Jeff Shaara brilliantly brings to life the American Revolution, creating a superb saga of the men who helped to forge the destiny of a nation - from idealistic attorney John Adams to audacious inventor and philosopher Ben Franklin; from Thomas Gage, the British general given the impossible task of crushing a colonial rebellion, to George Washington, the dashing Virginian who took command of a colonial army. Jeff Shaara's most impressive achievement, Rise to Rebellion reveals how philosophers became fighters, how ideas became their ammunition, and how a scattered group of colonies became the United States of America
