The Patriots

The Patriots

As England and her American colonies go to war, the loyalties of good men and women are put to the test. This is their story.

Esau and Jacob Morgan had been at odds with each other since their births moments apart. Their rivalry had spanned three decades and reached its peak when Jacob practically stole the attractive Mercy Reed for his wife while Esau, her fiancé was away studying in England. Now Jared and Anne Morgan are forced to watch as their sons take opposing stands in the struggle for American liberty.

Will the war for independence tear the Morgans apart? And if they survive, will the Morgan family faith and Bible continue in America, or will they return to England where it all started?

Follow the Morgan family as they are tossed about by the tides of conflict — from the battlefields of Lexington and Concord to the deadly winter encampment at Valley Forge to the seats of colonial power in Boston, Philadelphia, and New York — as their lives cross paths with the influential men and women who changed the course of history.

About the Book

At what point does a Christian take up arms against his own government?

As the winds of revolution agitate the colonies, forcing citizens to declare their allegiance, the Morgans find themselves split on the issue of independence. Twin brothers. Equally passionate. Both patriots. One faithful to England; the other to America. For them the question of loyalty centers around the family Bible. Will it remain in America or return to England? As the conflict turns deadly at Lexington and Concord, Valley Forge, Boston, New York and Philadelphia, the forces that pit brother against brother might very well become the salvation of the Morgan spiritual heritage.

 

A NOTE FROM JACK –  

Although the American Family Portrait series has gone through several printings, each with a different cover, I have chosen to display the original covers on my website at this time. But that will change in the Winter of 2025.
