(4) YA Revolutionary War soldier Robert Shurtliff has a secret: he's really Deborah Sampson, a young woman who's run away from an undesirable suitor in search of adventure and the chance to serve her country. The addition of so much fictional material makes one wonder why the author chose to write a made-up story about a real person. Timeline.
