Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
This is the biography of James Moody, once-famous, even infamous, partisan of Britain during the American Revolutionary War. His story begins in New Jersey, where he was a "plain contented farmer" before enlisting in a Loyalist provincial corps. Why he, and others like him, did so, defying republican neighbours and seeming political imperatives, is a compelling and largely untold aspect of colonial history. Moody's life was shaped by the growing pains of fledgling nationhood on both sides of the border. Yet he, and people like him, also helped to shape the destinies of nations. This complex weave of precarious existence and nation-building, of adaptation and "staking one's all," emerges clearly from Susan Shenstone's meticulous research and vivid writing.
