Johnny is a young and eager silversmith's apprentice in the colonial period who must find another job after an accident maims his hand. But before he can, he is swept into the struggle for independence, becoming a first-hand witness to the major events leading up to the Revolutionary War. He takes part in the Boston Tea Party, and soon afterward fights in the initial battles at Lexington and Concord, meeting such luminaries as Sam Adams and Paul Revere. JOHNNY TREMAIN explores the efforts that gained America independence through the eyes of a young man, thereby becoming an exciting and edifying look at that important historical period. [More]
