ABOUT THE BOOK: Follow along with travel expert Darley Newman as she road trips to hidden Revolutionary-era fortresses, authentic colonial taverns, and battlefields where hallowed ground and lesser-known heroes shaped a nation.
Join award-winning storyteller Darley Newman on a journey through American Revolution sites in national parks, great cities like Charleston and Princeton, and obscure haunts like a colonial tavern in Gettysburg. From lighthearted adventures like tasting Martha Washington’s recipe for Cherry Bounce to an emotional trek with a military historian at Camden Battlefield, Revolutionary Road Trip catalogs oral histories, tales, and truths passed down by generations of guides, community members, and experts whose boots are on the ground at historic locations across the thirteen original colonies. Step into a colonial time machine with Darley for a memorable, beguiling trip! Based on firsthand research and experiences, Darley shares untold stories for an entertaining, enlightening look at the founding of America and why exploring this history is so important.
Mixing delightful and intriguing fact-filled stories with practical travel advice, Revolutionary Road Trip is for the curious, intrepid history lover and traveler.
