Omschrijving

The Story of John Paul Jones is a book that should be read by every patriotic American. They don't teach this stuff in schools anymore, but they should! If we aren't aware of what our forefather's did for us, how can we possibly shape the future? John Paul Jones was a Scottish-born mariner who didn't come to America until he was almost 14 years old, but upon his first visit he fell in love with the country and the concept! A set of unusual circumstances turned this sea-faring man into a Virginia planter, but when British demands on the colonists became too excessive, he turned his back on his extensive land holdings, and offered his services to his new country without reservation. You'll read about the raising of the first American flag by John Paul Jones, and thrill to his many sea battles and frequent naval successes, the most successful being his attack on the British Man-of-war, the Serapis. As stated above, The Story of John Paul Jones is a book for every member of your family. Be sure to pass it along to your older children, because it describes in vivid detail exactly what the words "American Heritage" mean to all Americans!
