Summary: Love thy neighbor
Comment: Excellent book! Tells of how much the Tories suffered along with the Patriots and how they were treated. Sad story, but very good. I didn't like Walter or Abigail, though.

Summary: Perplexing Questions about Loyalty
Comment: This Revolutionary War era novel is quite interesting, enthralling and raises many questions and feelings about loyalties to friends, family and country in a time of war. Tories were American colonists who remained loyal to King George and England despite the fact that the Thirteen Colonies were on a course of independence from the monarchy. The story is about a teenage girl whose family are Tories living in a rural community. Her best friend is from a family who is in favor of independence. Events threaten their friendship and the life of her family causing difficult choices to be made. I really enjoyed this thought-provoking book.

Summary: Another great, and rare, historical fiction!
Comment: "Love Thy Neighbor: The Tory Diary of Prudence Emerson, Greenmarsh, Massachusetts, 1774" was such a great story! I was a little weary when beginning this story, as I feared this Tory family would be betrayed as rich, snobby, and not as human's, as that is the assumption with Tories. Luckily, that was not the case. I was glad that a book was finally published with loyal British people and what they dealt with through their eyes. A must read if you've read, or been reading, books about the Patriots. I recommend.
