1769. While many American colonists are angry at royal taxes, loyal merchant John Treegate sails to London and appeals to the government there. Alone, son Peter 11 is apprenticed to a maker of barrel staves, but his senior is vicious, leading to murder, shipwreck, amnesia, and adoption by a Scot, until the climax at the battle for American independence.
