Not an easy task considering Henry's ne'er-do-well father is in debtor's prison and his comically earnest older brother is busy fighting the red coats on the battlefields of Maryland. But Henry's stubborn determination knows no bounds. As he dodges the cannon fire of clashing armies and picks among the ruins of a burning capital he meets looters, British defectors, renegade slaves, a pregnant maiden in distress, and scoundrels of all types. Mad Boy is at once an antic adventure and a thoroughly convincing work of historical fiction that recreates a young nation's first truly international conflict and a key moment in the history of the emancipation of African-American slaves."-- provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Parents $x Death $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Life change events $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Spirits $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Children of prisoners $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Soldiers $x Family relationships $v Fiction. 651 0 $a United States $x History $y War of 1812 $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Maryland $x History $y War of 1812 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 3 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20210924014945.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006115422.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20180704015055.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=006E82EA7F5111E8A5BED64C97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
