Why read it?

1 author picked The Most Extraordinary Adventures of Major Robert Stobo as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

When I first found this gem at a colonial market fair, I was just overjoyed to read about a figure who fought with young George Washington at the beginning of the French and Indian War. When I began reading it, it exceeded all expectations. Here was a surprise adventure saga that kept me involved until the very last page. The best part was it is all true! I remember reading it and saying, wow this story should be made into a movie. 

From Jason's list on the French and Indian War.
