It's 1776, and the Revolutionary War is raging. Fourteen-year-old
Nathan Wade is a patriot, but he's too young to join the fight.
Then his cousin David Bushnell comes to town with a secret. David
has designed a water machine that can explode bombs underwater. And
his mission is to launch it against the British warships in New
York harbor.
Nate reluctantly agrees to help David build the weapon of war --
dubbed the "American Turtle." Although he's terrified of water and
worried about getting caught, when unlikely circumstances put Nate
at the center of the action, he must face the murky waters of his
fears head-on.
Based on actual historical events, this adventure story captures
the drama of the first submarine used in naval warfare and the
struggles of a teenager overcoming self-doubt.
