Description

A Powerful End of the Brig Nancy

Captain Hugh Montgomery had no idea how his voyage would end when he raised a United States flag for the first time in a foreign port. He was charged with delivering VITAL Army stores to General Washington. The British Navy forced him to make a gut wrenching decision. How would you respond?

This exciting true story relates the events of the Battle of Turtle Gut Inlet on Cape May in New Jersey. Live it again with the intrepid sailors who battled to wrestle our infant nation from the clutches of tyranny. Find yourself transported to sea on the deck of an eighteenth century warship. Come aboard the Continental Navy Brigantine Lexington and experience the danger and camaraderie of Captain John Barry and his shipmates.

Cringe as cannon balls fly past your ears, feel the physical exhaustion as you struggle to keep pace with the captain; and experience the tragic loss of a lifelong friend.---------------------------------"My hard copy of The Battle of Turtle Gut Inlet arrived in this morning's mail and I read it over a leisurely lunch. I wasn't disappointed. The author's use of jargon of the day and his ability to put the reader at the dinner table or on deck for action is well accomplished. He also provided a URL for the Turtle Gut history page which was a nice touch. Looking forward to reading more of the series. BZ!" -Tommy R.
