The Revolutionary War encompassed at least two struggles: one for freedom from British rule, and another, quieter but no less significant fight for the liberty of African Americans, thousands of whom fought in the Continental Army. Because these veterans left few letters or diaries, their story has remained largely untold, and the significance of their service largely unappreciated.
Many Americans know the Revolutionary War was won by the bravery and battle skills of our first patriots. But did you know that many of these loyal servicemen were black? With selfless dedication and no fanfare, these soldiers and seamen risked their lives to help shape our great country. Black Patriots in the American Revolutionary War: The Untold Story is a chapter book that tells the remarkable story of these early Americans.
