This is a fun and whimsical story. HOWEVER, this current printing has censored the author's original publication. They go to lengths to explain why they did this. But I feel this is still a desecration to the work of art this is. Hopefully they will someday re-release the ENTIRE book.

This novel is incredible in the genre of historical fiction because you know what should have happened but everything is different. There are many alternate history books for adults but shockingly few for teens. Every charactor you meet is intriguing, with many layers and motives. But the most exciting charactors are the historical figures such as Ben Franklin. This book is full of turns you cannot see coming simply because you know that's not what really happened. I highly recommend this book for students of American History, people who enjoy to speculate, or people who simply enjoy a fascinating story.
