Synopsis: "Do we exist as a property and for the enrichment of England or do we stand as free men in our own Country? Do we bend a knee in prayer or to violent monarch?" Pivotal events during the American Revolution converge to bring peaceful Copake Lake into the War of Independence. General Washington's atttempts to blockade the Hudson River and prevent British Warships from dividing the colonies have been met with failure. The great chain designed for his purpose has twice failed and before another attempt is made, must be tested unobserved. Bristish spies are everywhere, and agents of the Continental Army, the inkeeprs beutiful daughter, and the boys at the still band together in this frantic contest. Can a secret known only to a strange Oneida warrior save the day?
