NOTES

Taggert of the Marines is a tale of America's first Marines during the Revolutionary War. The Marines were born at a time of turmoil as the Colonies sought to overthrow the shackles of Great Britain. Sean Taggert joins the Marines recruits, trains and leads his men on board the Osprey in ship to ship action, weathering a hurricane as well as battling on land with Washington's forces. This fast-paced well researched novel follows some of the actual actions that the first Marines actually participated in during that conflict. From the first amphibious landing in the Bahamas to struggling through the snow with Washington's forces as they battled the British and the harsh winter. This is an exciting sea-tale that takes the readers on an action-packed adventure. You will experience the sound of cannon fire, the smell of the gun powder, the feel of the deck reeling under your feet. So come on board, and prepare to set sail to a journey into the glory of the Marines!
