for Where Was Patrick Henry on the 29th of May? by Jean Fritz and Margot Tomes
From the Publisher
Where was Patrick Henry on the 29th of May? Languishing on a sack of salt in his country store? Speaking out against England's stamp tax on the floor of the House of Burgesses? Or being elected governor? Well, no matter where he was or what he was doing, the 29th of May was always a red-letter day for Patrick Henry!
