Overview

""Peggy of Old Annapolis"" is a compelling historical novel set during the dawn of the American Revolution. Set in the vibrant colonial capital of Maryland, the story captures the political turmoil and social unrest of the 1770s as the colonies move toward independence.

The work focuses on the historical events surrounding the ship Peggy Stewart and the dramatic ""Annapolis Tea Party,"" an act of defiance against British taxation that rivaled the more famous event in Boston. As tensions with Great Britain escalate, the characters are forced to choose between their long-standing ties to the Old World and their burgeoning hopes for the New. Hawthorne Daniel masterfully blends historical fact with engaging storytelling, offering readers a vivid window into the atmosphere and social dynamics of Revolutionary-era America.
