Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sophia Sawyer, Emily Prudden, and Martha Berry encountered sexism, prejudice, financial hardship, discrimination, challenging travel conditions, exclusion from the right to vote, and social complacency. On one occasion two militiamen showed up at the school door and threatened to arrest the teacher if she continued teaching black children to read. Another instructor dealt with murder and mayhem, violence, loss of life, and racial hostility. And a third was shunned by her neighbors because she associated with poor mountaineers and “begged” to keep her school open. Their victories against overwhelming obstacles on behalf of struggling youth in the Southern Appalachian region, as well as in Oklahoma and Arkansas, led each into a deeper Christian life. With vision, audacity, and resolution these teachers enabled students to succeed. Their accomplishments as educators and as Christians provide inspiration for today’s readers. Sawyer, Prudden, and Berry were viewed in their culture as weak. However, they battled ignorance, bias, superstition, and even dirt, as they effectively changed the lives of thousands of children and adults.

Book excerpt: When the American Revolution arrives in Thomas Strong's sleepy Long Island village, his life is turned upside down. His church becomes a fort for the British, and a company of Redcoats are quartered in his family's home. But worst of all, his father is arrested as a traitor and taken away. It's no wonder that Thomas's mother seems to have been affected in the head. She washes and rewashes handkerchiefs and petticoats so that her clothesline is continually full of laundry. The errands on which she sends Thomas are not only peculiar but dangerous, since they take him right past a Redcoat encampment. At first Thomas doesn't know what to make of his mother's behavior, but as he keeps his eyes and ears open, he begins to suspect that things are not necessarily as they seem. Katherine Kirkpatrick's captivating story is based on the Culper Spy Ring, which operated on Long Island and in Connecticut from 1778 - 1783. Its purpose was to send messages to General George Washington about the activities of the British Army in New York City. Ronald Himler's dramatic watercolor illustrations bring this pivotal period of U.S. history to life for contemporary readers. Katherine Kirkpatrick grew up near Setauket in Stony Brook, New York. She first learned of Anna (Nancy) Strong's role in the Culper Spy Ring from Strong's great-great-granddaughter, Kate Strong, whom she interviewed for a fourth-grade project. Kirkpatrick has published eight books for children and young adults, both fiction and nonfiction. She lives in Seattle, Washington. Visit her at http: //katherinekirkpatrick.com . Ronald Himler has illustrated over a hundred books for children. His paintings also appear in art galleries throughout the Southwest, where he is highly acclaimed for his portraits of the Plains Indians. He lives in Tucson, Arizona.
