St. Michaels, Maryland, is a town of shipbuilders whose reputation
for crafting powerful schooners carries far beyond the shores of
young America. And once the War of 1812 starts, that's not
necessarily a good thing. For the British have targeted the town as
part of their campaign to defeat America in its fight to maintain
its independence.
And now, in August of 1813 the British fleet is sailing up the
Chesapeake River to St. Michaels. The town's militia is assembled
but no one expects they can win the fight against the powerful
British cannons. Citizens are being evacuated and the town is in
turmoil.
All young Henry Middle wants to do is find his father amid the
chaos of the coming attack. The lanterns he carries will be of use
to the militia. As Henry works to conquer his rising fear, he
realizes he may hold the answer to outsmarting the British in his
very hands.
