To young Elizabeth and Jimmy Thames war was something they had never considered would be a part of their lives. They lived a happy, peaceful existence close to Watertown, Mass. in a cabin by the Charles River. Their mother had passed away but they had moved on through their grief. When their father, a miller, explained to them the conflict between the colonies and England they listened but were not disturbed by it, until he was called into action. When he left they had to be responsible for their home and business. Even that didn’t worry them too much until they found a wounded British soldier unconscious in their mill house. What followed was an adventure that would change their lives forever as a handful of colonies turned into the greatest nation the world has ever known. Through this adventure they learned to trust mankind less, the importance of forgiveness and how to love. Most of all they came to see that God can be trusted to fight for them and that contentment comes through faith in Him.
