Time Enough for Drums

I promised that I'd try to write a little "report" on this book later on..and now is later on. Here it is:

Time Enough for Drums by Ann Rinaldi is a book set back against the Revolutionary War, like Johnny Tremain( if you've read it). It really is a good book, but it shows how Patriots felt about Loyalists and Tories back in those days. I'm going to use the back of the book as a guide-line as I tell about it:
Jemima Emerson, a fifteen year old girl, is shocked that her father,( a Rebel) is actually allowing her to be tutored by John Reid! John rules her studies with a very strong hand, and steps in the rules her life the same way. John is a noted Tory and a bully. Jemima fights back until she finds a dangerous and private secret about him, and makes her drastically change her mind about him.

This book is an excellent story about a family's hardship and romance during the Revolutionary War.
Read the book to find out the secret, and find out what happens in the end to both John and Jemima!!

I will do more, like about the book Gentle Annie and more!
