"Three Brothers" is fiction, but it's based on the real-life story of three young men who emigrated to America when it was a mere colony of Great Britain and helped it become the independent nation that is now the leader of the free world. Here, you'll meet Ben Franklin, participate in the Boston Tea Party, see the world's greatest army flee in terror from a rag-tag band of Patriots, and be on the sidelines as the sword of surrender is presented, not to George Washington, but to an American General named Lincoln. You'll also gain an insight into one citizen's opinion of Tom Jefferson, explore the beliefs of those who belonged to the Society of Friends, otherwise known as Quakers, and be a silent witness as Franklin and a buddy exchange bawdy rhymes at a meeting of their exclusive Grog & Limerick Club.
