1974, Coward
(2) 1-3 Illustrated by Margot Tomes & Margot Tomes. This is a welcome reissue of the story, based on legend, about a real colonial girl named Temperance Wick and how she concealed a horse in her bedroom to protect it from mutinying American soldiers. The book presents a realistic and humane view of the Revolutionary War and of the people who fought it. Tomes's illustrations capture the humorous quality of the storytelling.
