The Drums Roll
By Ernest Haycox
In the fog-shrouded fields of Germantown, a mysterious farmer-turned-soldier marches with Washington’s ragged army. Ira Parcel, a man of hidden past and sharp instincts, clashes with brutish comrades and the chaos of battle as the Revolution’s fate hangs in the balance. Amidst the drums of war and the weight of loyalty, one man’s secrets—and the cost of freedom—are tested under fire.
