JFK, WWII, and the Heroic Rescue of PT 109
Iain Martin
On August 2, 1943, young John F. Kennedy's PT 109 and two others were on a night mission to ambush an enemy supply convoy when they were surprised by a massive Japanese destroyer. The unsuspecting Americans had only seconds to react as the Japanese captain turned his ship to ram directly into Kennedy's. PT 109 was cut in half by the collision, killing two of Kennedy's 12 crewmen and wounding several others in the explosion.
In Harm's Way tells the gripping story of what happened next as JFK fought to save his surviving crew members who found themselves adrift in enemy waters. Photographs round out the exciting narrative in the first book to cover this adventurous tale for young readers.

When her father left Fairfield, Connecticut, to join General Washington's army, 13 year old Hope found it easy to promise that she would be brave. That was before a raiding party of Tories plundered her home, set it afire, and took Hope captive.
Brought across the Sound to Long Island, Hope became a slave for Noah Thomas and his ill tempered wife. Her courage was tested many times over in this harsh new life. It would have failed her completely but for her one unlikely ally, Noah's aged mother. Placing human decency above political differences, Mother Thomas set off with Hope to help her find her way home.
