by Scott A. Lesnett (Author)

The book is a unique combination of authentic family stories blended with America's most memorable historical events starting in 1752 with George Washington's arrival to western Pennsylvania and Christian Lesnett's landing at Baltimore harbor. The reader will follow the Lesnett family as it participates in the last battle of The French & Indian War through The Whiskey Rebellion, The Revolutionary War, The Battle of 1812, The Civil War, The Great Depression and World War II. Scott Lesnett, the author, personalizes these epic times with "passed down" stories that alter certain historic events while providing the reader with a fresh perspective on the formation of the United States. Tales and opinions of each lineage character are told from the colorful viewpoint of the author's father, Thomas Dell Lesnett III. This is truly an American story, which spans NINE GENERATIONS of struggle and achievement.
