Speaking of Elizabeth's father, he was not a very nice father. Her father and her friends fled during the night - leaving her. If you remember in history class, when we won the war, the English fled during this time- because they could be marked with treason.

On the eve of her wedding, her townhouse (and many other Tory's estates) were ransacked and taken over by the Patriots.

However, I think Laura did this on purpose. She was so focused on her wedding and parties going on. At first, I didn't feel a connection with Elizabeth. She is about to be married to a man named Miles. It's always interesting to read one's perspective of that time.Įlizabeth is a daughter of a lieutenant governor on the English side. If not for our forefathers, we wouldn't have the freedoms we have today. I always love a good story set during the American Revolution.
