While I’d love to get Adversary out in time for Christmas, the real-life complications of the last few months have slowed my writing progress. You can sign up here to get email alerts whenever there’s a new release by Janet Edwards.

I am continuing to progress Adversary as quickly as possible, but there are inevitably some days where I feel like I’ve been hit by an especially aggressive express lift. After a year where we’ve effectively moved three times, I’m dealing with one lot of medical stuff that I didn’t expect to happen until August, another lot of medical stuff that was totally unexpected, and a lot of complications from the great boiler disaster. That isn’t just because Adversary has turned out to be even longer than Borderline, fighting it out neck and neck with Sol 2781 for the title of my longest book. Unfortunately, it’s a lot harder than usual to estimate timescales for those stages. It still needs to go through the final revisions, copyedit, proofreading, and formatting stages before it’s ready for publication. Adversary is now at the end of the Beta reading stage.

Lizzie Benson slid into her job as a librarian without a traditional degree. Ferling's narrative is also filled with compassion for the men who comprised the British army and who, like their American counterparts, struggled and died at an astonishing rate in this harsh war. The book also examines the many faceless men who soldiered, often for years on end, braving untold dangers and enduring abounding miseries. Others, such as the quirky, acerbic Charles Lee, are seen in a much better light than usual. Some do not always measure up to their iconic reputations, including Washington himself. The author paints sharp-eyed portraits of the key figures in the war, including General Washington and other American officers and civilian leaders. General George Washington put it best when he said that the American victory was "little short of a standing miracle."Īlmost a Miracle offers an illuminating portrait of America's triumph, offering vivid descriptions of all the major engagements, revealing how these battles often hinged on intangibles such as leadership under fire, heroism, good fortune, blunders, tenacity, and surprise. As Ferling demonstrates, it was a war that America came much closer to losing than is now usually remembered. In this gripping chronicle of America's struggle for independence, award-winning historian John Ferling transports listeners to the grim realities of that war, capturing an eight-year conflict filled with heroism, suffering, cowardice, betrayal, and fierce dedication. |
