The Heart of Liberty

The heart of Liberty, Thomss Flemming's New York Times bestselling novel, has been hailed as the "Gone with the Wind of the American Revolution".

Told from the perspective of James, Jemmy Kemble, writing for his grandchildren, the opening of the books reads, "Let me caution in strictest terms against publishing what I write. The nation is not ready to France the truth about itself that n honest story of the Revolution must mirror.

Kemble thus recalls the great event of his life--the upheaval that created the United States of America. His honest story unflinchingly depicts the panic and cowardice, the greet nd brutality that were part if the war for independence. It also celebrates the Americans who struggled to cope with the chaos of a war most of them never wanted.
