Johnny Tremain

In his famous historical novel for children, author Esther Forbes transports young readers to revolutionary-era Boston and New York through the eyes of 14-year-old Johnny Tremain. With the help of Forbes's lively text, artist Irene Trivas breathes life into characters like John Hancock, Samuel Adams, and Dr. Joseph Warren, and brings to vivid life pivotal events including the Boston Tea Party, Paul Revere's ride to Lexington after hearing shots fired at the North Church in Boston, and the Battle at Bunker Hill. In this anniversary edition, Nathan Hale adds a new foreword to this classic novel.
