MacMillan Publishers

During the summer of 1776, just three days after patriots declared independence from Britain, an enemy invasion from Canada loomed. "Valcour: The 1776 Campaign That Saved the Cause of Liberty" by historian Jack Kelly is the wild, suspenseful story of this crucial and often neglected campaign of the Revolutionary War.

There will be an Oblong Books Online Book Launch on Thursday night at 7 p.m. via Crowdcast.
