The Legend of Benny

The Legend of Benny unfolds right after Thanksgiving when a man begins an incredible adventure into history. While holiday shopping in an antique store on the North Fork of Long Island he stumbles upon an old diary that tells the story of an orphaned child who grows up to become a true but unsung hero of the American Revolution. The portrait of Benny not only reflects a reluctant hero but also an incredible romantic who develops a loving relationship that often seems to be tested by the times. This book is a character study and the story of the people who courageously engaged in a struggle for independence and founded a nation. They were often torn between choices and sometimes forced to pick one side. This book also tells of romance, family and love during stressful times.
