Hurrah for Liberty - Paperback

by Oran Brucks (Author)

1814. America teeters between defeat and surrender in its war with Britain. The British burn Washington. President Madison flees, barely escaping capture. An immense British fleet prowls south along the Eastern seaboard. Final destination: America's soft underbelly, New Orleans. The tentacles of war reach ever inland from the north, east, and south. Britain is strangling America into final submission. While the cauldron of conflict boils over the country, in remote Pennsylvania two brothers have no interest in war. Travis and Squib Tanner, with their wolf dog, Fidious, are headed West along the earlier path of famed explorers Lewis and Clark. The brothers seek exploration, hunting, fishing, and adventure along the way. Their idyllic voyage suddenly takes an unexpected turn when, trapped by a chance encounter, they unknowingly find themselves prey in a deadly game of secrets played by ruthless killers who are certain as hell that the Tanners have their prize. This prize must be regained at any cost. Only one side will win and a nation will live or die.
